  • Blood processing information system with blood loss equivalency tracking
    Patent number: 7430478
    Abstract: A blood component collection system with data manipulation and optimization capabilities. The system comprises a central database, a data manipulation device, and a communication subsystem connected to the central database and the data manipulation device, and one or more extracorporeal blood processing machines. The central database maintains records of total donation volumes contributed by a donor during selected time periods as communicated by the blood processing machine and as determined by the data manipulation device. The records comprise a total red blood cell donation volume and a total plasma donation volume.

  • Extracorporeal blood processing information management system
    Patent number: 7072769
    Abstract: A blood component collection system with manipulation and optimization capabilities. In one embodiment, process parameters are derived from an input/configured predetermined blood component yield and which is based upon the maximization of at least one process parameter. Thereafter, the blood component collection procedure is performed with these derived process control parameters. In another embodiment, process parameters are derived from an input total procedure time from a maximized value for at least one of the other process control parameters so as to maximize blood component yield in this fixed time. Thereafter, the blood component collection procedure is performed with these derived parameters.

  • Extracorporeal blood processing information management system
    Publication number: 20030154108
    Abstract: A blood component collection system with data manipulation and/or optimization capabilities. In one embodiment, process parameters are derived from an input and/or configured predetermined blood component yield and which is based upon the maximization of at least one process parameter. Thereafter, the blood component separation and collection procedure is performed with these derived process control parameters. In another embodiment, process parameters are derived from an input total procedure time from a maximized value for at least one of the other process control parameters so as to maximize blood component yield in this fixed time. Thereafter, the blood component separation and collection procedure is performed with these derived parameters.
