ABSTRACT:
In a blood reservoir comprising a container casing defining a space for accommodating blood, the casing having a generally rectangular contour defining a pair of top and bottom sides and a pair of laterally opposed sides, provided that the casing assumes a vertically upright attitude, an inlet port is disposed in one lateral side of the casing for introducing blood into the space, an outlet port is disposed in the bottom side of the casing for discharging blood from the space, and a vent port disposed in the top side of the casing in fluid communication with the space. In another form, a partition separates the space into upper and lower compartments, and apertures are formed in the partition for allowing partial fluid communication between the compartments. The inlet port and the vent port are in communication with the upper compartment, and the outlet port is in communication with the lower compartment.
