ABSTRACT:
Blood is pumped by a pump, preferably a bi-concave diaphragm pump. When the blood pump is full of blood, this full condition is detected and a batch of blood is emptied completely from the pump for delivery to the patient. A second pump, also preferably a bi-concave diaphragm pump, pumps anti-coagulant into the blood as it is recovered. This second pump ejects its contents every time the blood pump ejects its contents. Particulates in the blood are removed by a filter and air is removed by a defoamer. Fluid and very small matter in the blood may be removed in a tangential flow separator. Blood flows through a narrow passage along one or more membranes, with fluid and small matter passing through the membrane(s). A washing fluid may be added to blood within this separator. A third pump, again preferably a bi-concave diaphragm pump, is used to add this washing fluid. The third pump is emptied whenever the blood pump empties, and thereafter refills with washing fluid.
