ABSTRACT:
An autotransfusion device usable with a chest drainage unit includes a collapsible fluid collection bag assembly having pliable fluid collection bag, a pair of stiffener members adjacent the opposed sides of the bag, and an enclosure sealingly connected to the bag securing the stiffeners in place. A fluid inlet, gas outlet, and a blood outlet are connected to the bag. A holder is dimensioned to compress the opposed edges of the bag assembly to cause the stiffeners to bow outwardly in opposite directions and expand the collection bag.
