Title
The Hemobag®, an improved way to salvage autologous whole blood in surgery
Description
Excerpted from the website description:
- The Hemobag® is the only autotransfusion product on the market salvaging and concentrating all autologous whole blood fractions and constituents for Cardiac, Thoracic and Vascular Surgery, helping to avoid unnecessary allogeneic blood product use. This technique offers perfusionists a new role in optimizing hemostasis and homeostasis hours after the termination of surgery. Saving More Blood, Reducing Costs, and Improving Patient Outcomes.

Additional Information
Several processes have been developed to assist in salvaging a patient's own blood in the perioperative setting, e.g., cell processors and salvage devices that wash and save red blood cells, direct transfusion, and ultrafiltration of whole blood.
The Hemobag® is a new type of ultrafiltration reservoir designed to overcome the limitations of RBC-savers and direct retransfusion in cardiac, vascular, and other types of surgery through hemofiltration. The methodology of blood salvaging with the Hemobag® in the operating room is depicted in this Hemobag® video
Studies to date have shown the Hemobag® to quickly and safely recover substantial proteins, clotting factors, and red cell concentrates.
