Description
Rinseback
• Yes
• No
All procedures
Allows you to specify whether the system should perform or skip rinseback at
the end of the run. During rinseback, the system pumps saline through the
tubing set and evacuates the fluid in the channel to return the remaining blood
components to the patient. If you perform a custom prime, the system will
automatically skip rinseback unless you specify otherwise. The default setting
for performing rinseback is Yes for most procedures. If you are performing a red
blood cell exchange procedure, or if you selected to perform a custom prime,
the default setting is No.
Custom prime
• Yes
• No
• TPE
• SPD
• RBCX
• MNC
• CMNC
• PMN
• WBCD
• PLTD
Allows you to fill the tubing set with specified fluid (RBC, plasma, or albumin)
after you prime the set with saline and before you connect the patient.
Performing a custom prime helps to maintain isovolemia when the patient has a
low RBC volume or a low total blood volume, such as a pediatric patient. After
the custom prime is complete and the run is started, the fluid used is pumped
from the channel to the patient before the system establishes the interface.The
default setting for performing a custom prime is No.
HES
• Yes
• No
• PMN
• WBCD
Allows you to indicate the use of hydroxyethyl starch (HES) during a procedure.
The default setting is the configured setting.
Saline rinse
• Yes
• No
All procedures
Allows you to rinse the tubing set with saline solution when you are concerned
about hypersensitivity reactions associated with residual ethylene oxide in the
tubing set, which is a result of sterilization. This option is available to select
before you connect the patient. The default setting for performing a saline rinse
is No.
Single Needle
• Yes
• No
TPE
Allows you to indicate the use of a single access to perform a procedure. The
default setting for the single-needle option is No.
Collect plasma
• Yes
• No
BMP
Allows you to specify whether the system should collect plasma at the end of
the run. The system uses procedure data to determine the optimal plasma
volume to collect, but you may change the volume during the run. The default
setting to collect plasma is the configured setting.
