Final Cycle
Final Cycle allows the user to specify what the device does to end the
procedure after air is detected in Fill. When Final Cycle is activated, the device
continues processing until air is detected in Fill, after which the device
automatically completes the procedure according to the selected Final Cycle
settings: Last Partial Bowl Wash (Single/Double), or End Procedure. See “Cell
Salvage Default Settings” on page 129 for more information.
Manual Mode
This feature enables the user to control the Cell Saver Elite+ device manually
for cell salvage with minimal sensor monitoring. To control the device, the Fill,
Wash, Empty, Conc, and Return phases are manually selected by the user. In
Manual Mode:
The line sensor and bowl optics are disabled.
The air detector is used for volume accounting in the Fill, Wash, and
Concentrate phases, and to determine when to end the Empty and
Return phases.
Alert: When the device is in Manual Mode, sensors are disabled. As a
result, the detection and determination of RBCs is the full responsibility
of the operator. During Manual Mode, the operator is responsible for
monitoring the Fill phase (or concentration) and manually transitioning
to the Wash phase to start the next operation. If the transition is delayed,
it could lead to the loss of red blood cells. If the transition is early, it could
lead to low quality collection.
Alert: When the device is in Manual Mode, if the washing of the packed
red blood cells is inadequate, it may lead to an excessive level of
contaminants (for example, plasma free hemoglobin, anticoagulant) in
the processed blood.
