Blood extraction and reinfusion flow control system and method

摘要

The apparatus controls withdrawal of blood from a donor and reinfusion after processing, such as after removal of a component (e.g. apheresis). A flow rate limit is established for withdrawal and infusion and adjusted periodically to maximise the withdrawal/infusion rates. Pressure and flow rates in the input and output paths are monitored and used by an appropriate control processor to optimise withdrawal and infusion. IMAGE
