ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for extracting blood fluids from a placenta and umbilical cord comprises a frame assembly, a rotary carriage mounted to the frame assembly for rotation about a vertical axis, a drive operatively connected to the carriage for rotating the carriage about the axis, and a support for holding the placenta and the umbilical cord. A connector pivotably connects the support to the carriage to enable a pivoting of the support about a rotating horizontal axis during rotating of the carriage by the drive, while a collector is attached to the support for enabling a collection of fluid flowing from the placenta and the umbilical cord during operation of the drive. A fluid delivery system is provided for automatically supplying an anticoagulant to extracted blood fluid.
