Abstract:
Systems and methods separate blood cells from whole blood and pump the separated blood cells through an in-line leukofilter to a blood cell storage container. The leukofilter comprises a filtration medium enclosed within a flexible housing. The systems and methods include a fixture to restrain expansion of the flexible filter housing during operation of the pump. The fixture includes a bracket to enable its releasable attachment to the blood processing device employed to carry out the separation process.
Abstract:
Systems and methods separate pump the blood cells through an in-line leukofilter to a blood cell storage container. The leukofilter has a filtration medium enclosed within a flexile housing. The systems and methods can employ a fixture to restrain expansion of the flexible filter housing during operation of the pump.
Abstract:
Blood processing systems and methods (10) convey blood cells from a blood cell source into a blood component collection flow channel that includes a blood cell storage container and an in-line filter to remove leukocytes from blood cells before entering the blood cell storage container. The systems and methods also convey additive solution from an additive solution source into the blood component collection flow channel. The systems and methods alternate the conveyance of blood cells through the filter with the conveyance of additive solution through the filter.
