Figure 60, Example of a Sequestration process prompt
The device pumps the RBCs in the bowl into the RBC bag. Air from the air bag
is drawn into the bowl to replace fluid. The pumps stop when the bowl is empty.
Note: If the device loses power during the Empty cycle, do not touch the valve
cover latch while recovering the procedure. If you do open the valve cover
latch, ensure it is completely closed before recovering the procedure.
Concentration
During
Sequestration
If, during the Fill phase, the blood bag is empty and there are RBCs from a
previous cycle in the RBC bag, an event message displays the following three
options:
1. Continue Using Blood Bag.
2. Continue Using RBC Bag
3. End Cycle
If you select Continue Using RBC Bag, the system will concentrate, or pull
previously processed RBCs from the RBC bag into the bowl, to fill the bowl and
push the PPP and PRP into their respective collection bags. The device will
display a prompt, indicating the proper position of the clamps.
