Entering and Confirming Patient and Procedure Data
This section contains instructions for entering patient data and reviewing and confirming run values. You can enter
the data after you select the procedure and before you connect the patient. It is important that the data you enter be
as accurate and as current as possible.
Entering Patient Data
1
Touch the buttons on the screen to enter the following information:
• Sex
• Height
• Weight
• Hematocrit (Hct)
The Spectra Optia system uses the sex, height, and weight to calculate the patient’s TBV. See page 266 for the
formula the system uses to calculate this value. If you prefer not to use the TBV that the system calculated,
touch
TBV
and enter a different volume. The operator override icon ( ) will appear on the button.

Touch
Confirm
. The run values screen appears.
Reviewing and Confirming the Run Values
1
Review the run values that appear on the screen and confirm that they are correct. The run targets for a PMN
procedure are listed below. A black frame appears around the button of the primary run target.
• Whole blood processed (mL)
• TBV processed
• Run time (min)
• Collect volume: Target (mL)
If you change a value, the color of the value on the button changes from white to yellow. Values that were
affected by a change appear with a yellow arrow. The arrow points up or down to indicate an increase or
decrease in the value as a result of the change.
2
When you are finished reviewing the run values, touch
Confirm
.
Note:
When you are required to enter numerical data, the system displays a data entry pad for entering the data. The
acceptable numerical range appears on the data entry pad.
Note:
If the patient weighs less than 25 kg (approximately 55 lb), the system does not calculate a TBV. You
must calculate and enter the appropriate TBV for the patient.
Note:
Only the color of the last value you changed remains yellow. The values you previously changed revert to
white.
