| Description | Davol has worked in partnership with clinicians for more than a decade to deliver the benefits of autologous blood to patients. With the introduction of the SURETRANS System, autotransfusion reaches new levels of simplicity while helping to ensure patient and clinician safety - resulting in new levels of confidence for surgeons and nurses. The SURETRANS autotransfusion unit is an easy-to-use system designed to allow the simultaneous collection and reinfusion of autologous shed blood following orthopaedic surgery. The surgeon connects the SURETRANS system to the closed wound drain(s). ACD-A anticoagulant may be added to the collection container through the injection port if desired by the surgeon. The detachable Solcovac suction evacuator provides self-contained suction to the unit. Alternatively, wall suction may be used. An internal vacuum limiter prevents suction from exceeding -90 mmHG. Collected blood is transferred into the attached blood transfer bag for reinfusion. Reinfusion of the blood follows normal blood transfusion procedures utilizing a 20-40 micron microaggregate blood filter and a standard blood administration set by gravity drip. While the blood is reinfusing, collection can simultaneously continue into the collection container. For closed wound suction following autotransfusion, either the Solcovac suction evacuator or the collection container may be used for the continued collection of drainage fluids. The system contains the following: An 800ml transparent collection container with internal 260 micron pre-filter and blood transfer button; A patient drainage tube incorporating an anticoagulant injection port and a universal Y-connector for connection to the closed wound drain; A VELCRO brand hook and loop fastener attached suction assembly including a Solcovac suction evacuator with one-way valve and a connecting suction line.A 1000ml blood transfer bag connected to the blood container by a 6 ft. transfer tube. |
