Self-Regulating Suction Pump

In the automation process, this collected blood is cleaned and made available for transfusion back into the patient. This ensures that patients receive the safest blood possible: their own.

The Harmony system combines high suction rates with the low vacuum pressures needed for the best blood cell recovery, while eliminating the need to adjust suction levels. The system is specifically designed to supply suction for the OrthoPat, CardioPat, and Cell Saver autotranfusion systems of Haemonetics Corp. (Braintree, MA, USA; www.haemonetics.com), which developed Harmony.

"We believe this exciting technology will make a significant contribution to surgical practice, making it easier for surgeons to simultaneously visualize the field and effectively salvage red blood cells for reinfusion,” said Brian Concannon, president of Haemonetic's Patient Division.
