I'm just learning the basics and make a clue of it. Hemosep is a blood management procedure.
Hemosep is a device that successfully broke in the market of blood salvage
- BLOOD SALVAGE/CELL SALVAGE TOP
- Blood and tissue that enters the surgical field or wound is collected, separated, cleaned, and the red cells are returned to the patient.
- Post-operatively: Before the surgery is completed, a drain is inserted to salvage blood from the surgical site. In the patient's room, the blood continuing to drain from the surgical site can be filtered and returned to the patient.
Hemopur however was the brandname of an abortive attempt to produce a hemodilution from animal blood. Hemodilution is also a blood-management-procedure.
- HEMODILUTION (ACUTE NORMOVOLEMIC HEMODILUTION, ANH) TOP
- A predetermined amount of whole blood (calculated prior to surgery, based on expected blood loss and the patient's data) is withdrawn from the patient at the beginning of surgery and held in a reservoir in the operating room; can be kept constantly connected to the patient if required. The volume drawn off for reserve is replaced with a substitute, non-blood solution so that any blood loss during the surgery is reduced due to the dilution.
- The reserved blood may be used to supplement the patient's blood volume during the procedure as needed or returned to the patient at the end of the surgery as the substitute solution is eliminated
- The reserved blood must be returned within 8 hours or be discarded.
