14 Principles of Operation Three Steps Draw and separate the blood Remove the target component Return or replace the remaining components 2016 MFMER slide-14

15 Types of Separation Centrifugation Elutriation Filtration Combination of filtration and centrifugation 2016 MFMER slide-15

16 2016 MFMER slide-16

17 CENTRIFUGATION 2016 MFMER slide-17

18 Centrifuge Apheresis Permission of Dr. Dobri Kiprov 2016 MFMER slide-18

19 Centrifugation Separation by weight (specific gravity) Can be used for cells or plasma G force defined by RPM and rotor radius Dwell time is important High viscosity can affect RBC size can affect Dual stage channels= multiple G forces Continuous flow versus intermittent flow 2016 MFMER slide-19

27 Component Separation- TPE Ramp Outlet Plasma (low platelets) Low-G Wall Ramp Outlet Packed Red Blood Cells High-G Wall Inlet Whole Blood Platelets/White Cells G- Force 2016 MFMER slide-27

28 ELUTRIATION 2016 MFMER slide-28

29 Basic Principles of MNC Collection 1. Whole blood enters the channel 2. Blood separates in the connector 3. Buffy coat layer is pumped into the chamber 4. Platelets are returned to the patient and MNC cells are pumped into the collection bag Home Introduction Protocol Value Performance Comparison Appendix 2016 MFMER slide-29

30 2. Chamber Fills Centrifugal force Separation in the chamber Target cells accumulate in the chamber Platelets are continuously pumped back to the patient Collect pump flow rate 30 Home Introduction Protocol Value Performance Comparison Appendix 2016 MFMER slide-30

59 SEPARATORS 2016 MFMER slide-59

60 MICROPROCESSORS 2016 MFMER slide-60

61 MAINTENACE & CLEANING 2016 MFMER slide-61

62 Maintenance Follow manufacturer recommendations Annual or semiannual PM Routine maintenance Watch for worn or damaged parts Keep the equipment clean 2016 MFMER slide-62

63 Cleaning Very important Blood, plasma, albumin, ACD-A,HES = sticky Also contaminating agents Saline is corrosive Follow manufacturer recommendations Use appropriate cleaning agents Extreme spills may require service personnel 2016 MFMER slide-63

64 SAFETY 2016 MFMER slide-64

65 Safety Follow manufacturer operating instructions Watch for hemolysis Kinked tubing Wrong fluids Hot centrifuge High TMP during filtration Prevent large spills- fluids & electricity=bad day Keep safety sensors and latches in place Prevent loose items near centrifuges 2016 MFMER slide-65
