Indications for
Use
The Haemonetics Cell Saver 5+ System and its related accessory components are
intended to be used for the recovery and processing of blood shed during or
subsequent to an operation or as a result of trauma. The recovered blood is
processed by a centrifugation and washing procedure before pumping the red
cell product to either a bag for gravity reinfusion into the patient or an
extracorporeal circuit. The Haemonetics Cell Saver 5+ System may also be used
for preoperative platelet and plasma sequestration.
Contraindications
for Use
The risk/benefit ratio of blood salvage must be determined on an individual basis
by the surgeons, anesthesiologists and transfusion medicine specialists involved
in the patient’s care. Refer to Appendix A for a chart of contraindicated
substances, the effects of their use, and the recommended corrective actions to
perform.
Warning: The use of reinfused blood from the Cell Saver 5+ System may be
contraindicated, for example, in the case of sepsis or malignancy. The
responsibility for the use of this device belongs solely to the physician in charge.
