ABSTRACT:
A device and method of operation for receiving retrieved blood from the surgical field of a patient and treating the blood so that it is in condition for direct or indirect return to the patient. The device is comprised of a housing adapted to receive a relatively large volume of blood, which when received is removed of air bubbles and other foreign matter. The received blood flows smoothly both to and from a fibrous membrane interposed in the path of blood flow thereby avoiding bubbling and damage to the blood. Significantly, means within the housing are provided to inhibit clotting of the blood within the housing.
