ABSTRACT:
Improved methods and apparatus for the collection, purification and reinfusion of blood from a wound site. The present invention provides a source of anticoagulated washing fluid in proportion to the bleeding rate which can be directed to the suction tip in such a way that the wound or surgical site is washed.
The present invention minimizes blood damage and maximizes blood recovery by (i) automatically regulating the suction in proportion to the bleeding rate, (ii) minimizing the air suction or blood frothing, (iii) washing the wound site with the anticoagulated washing fluid, and (iv) reducing the number of blood pumps, preferably to one.
The present invention also provides a system to operate automatically by including automatic venting of entrapped air, continuous determination of irrigation fluid added into the wound site and its removal, continuous monitoring of hematocrit, continuous neutralization of anticoagulant, and reinfusion of purified blood to patient on realtime basis irrespective of bleeding rate.
