Dedicated autoregulating suction for intraoperative autotransfusion i n tegrated D e v i c e s

Suction isn't top-of-mind What percentage of RBCs lyse when you're suctioning blood for reinfusion? Do you reduce suction levels or do you modify technique to protect RBCs when Vacuum Pressure Gregoretti et al showed that hemolysis is associated with higher suction forces. Hemolysis is even greater when air mixes with blood. Chances are you don't give suction a lot of thought. Not because it couldn't be better, but because wall suction is all you've ever known. The American Association of Blood Banks recommends using dedicated suction with a maximum vacuum force of 150-200 mmHg. Maintaining suction...
