POTENTIAL As a global leader in blood component, therapeutic apheresis and cellular technologies, we believe in the potential of blood to do even more for patients than it does today. This belief inspires our innovation and strengthens our collaboration with customers. Terumo BCT Unlocking the Potential of Blood

TAKE CONTROL OF BUFFY COAT PROCESSING STANDARDIZE YOUR PROCESS, PRODUCE MORE CONSISTENT PRODUCTS AND STREAMLINE TRACEABILITY WITH ELECTRONIC CONTROL OF PROCESSING AND ADVANCED DATA COLLECTION AND MANAGEMENT

THE IMPORTANCE OF AUTOMATION AND ELECTRONIC DATA MANAGEMENT Traditional, manual methods of blood processing introduce many challenges, making it harder to contend with the following demands: Regulatory requirements Process and product control ■■ Staffing issues ■■ Recording and tracking data ■■ ■■ TACSI (Terumo Automated Centrifuge & Separator Integration) helps blood centers address these issues—producing high-quality, consistent blood products—while TOMEs (Terumo Operational Medical Equipment Software) collects, accesses and stores key collection and processing data. TOMEs was created to...

THE POWER OF THE TACSI/TOMEs TOTAL SYSTEM THE TACSI SYSTEM AUTOMATES AND INTEGRATES THE MANY STEPS INVOLVED IN PROCESSING BUFFY COAT (BC) PRODUCTS INTO READY-TO-TRANSFUSE PLATELET (PL) PRODUCTS. USING THE TACSI SYSTEM WITH TOMEs CREATES A TOTAL SYSTEM, ADDING EVEN GREATER CONTROL OF PROCESSING AND DATA MANAGEMENT. THIS TOTAL SYSTEM CAN ALSO COMMUNICATE WITH YOUR BLOOD BANK INFORMATION SYSTEM (BBIS) TO PROVIDE FURTHER BENEFITS TO YOUR BLOOD CENTER.

TACSI SYSTEM TERUMO AUTOMATED CENTRIFUGE & SEPARATOR INTEGRATION TOMEs TERUMO OPERATIONAL MEDICAL EQUIPMENT SOFTWARE TACSI SYSTEM ADDING TOMEs THE TOTAL SYSTEM PLUS BBIS ■ Automates and standardizes BC processing ■ Produces consistent, high-quality PL products ■ Delivers high recovery of components with integrated optical sensors that detect the separation interface ■ Monitors and displays separation and expression progress ■ Streamlines process with the ability to pre-load inserts and compensate for imbalance of blood bags ■ Offers customized protocols ■ Optimizes workflow ■ Saves...

THE TACSI SYSTEM ADVANCED, STANDARDIZED, HIGH-QUALITY BLOOD PROCESSING The TACSI system is a full stand-alone technology that automates and integrates the manual steps in the BC method of PL processing, six units at a time. The TACSI system creates consistent, high-quality products with greater efficiency. Used with TOMEs, data collection and management is quick and simple, helping you more easily address the challenges that every component lab faces. The TACSI system is straightforward and intuitive to operate. It automates and consolidates manual processing steps, including the following...

DESIGNED FOR SPEED AND ACCURACY, INSERTS HELP IMPROVE YOUR PROCESS The TACSI system uses inserts to hold the bags securely in place during processing; the inserts are designed to be removed from the device, so loading and unloading the kits takes place outside of the device. This allows you to pre-mount the inserts while the system is running, saving you time. TACSI PL INSERT ■■ Includes an insert and insert cover Can be removed from the device for mounting Saves time: ability to pre-mount another batch of inserts while the TACSI system processes the previous batch Incorporates a holder for...

THE ADVANTAGES OF THE TACSI SYSTEM LOOK WHAT THE TACSI SYSTEM CAN DO PRODUCE HIGHER-QUALITY PRODUCTS* The TACSI system delivers precision that improves both product output and product quality. ■■ ■■ Higher platelet content Purer product with fewer red blood cells and white blood cells INCREASE PRODUCT CONSISTENCY* Automation eliminates the variances caused by manual operations. The TACSI system offers a level of consistency that cannot be attained with traditional manual processing methods. TACSI IN DAILY USE 320 Data on file at Terumo BCT. IMPROVE THROUGHPUT* Each TACSI device can process...

POSSIBLE CONFIGURATIONS SAVE SPACE* The TACSI system can be installed in the main lab area, close to other equipment used in the procedure. No separate centrifugation room is required. Limited space needed for processing Quiet operation ■■ More room for new technologies ■■ Integrated, internal temperature regulation ■■ ■■ INTEGRATION CLUSTERS Weighing and Sealing Pooling Step REINFORCE GMPS* A high degree of process control and comprehensive collection of run data reinforces GMPs and compliance. Minimal handling of blood bags reduces the risk of errors Built-in cassette facilitates...

TOMEs TERUMO OPERATIONAL MEDICAL EQUIPMENT SOFTWARE

ENHANCE PROCESS CONTROL AND PRODUCTIVITY This dynamic data communication and management system works with a range of Terumo BCT devices. TOMEs was created to improve: ■■ Data management Provides electronic documentation, reporting, traceability and data exchange. Workflow management Continuously monitors device activity, simplifies configuration and streamlines process control. GMPs Easily verifies data, standardizes processes and reduces data entry errors. Infrastructure Dedicated hardware and software provides built-in, fail-safe backup and security. ENHANCE THE PROCESS CONTROL AND...

THE TACSI/TOMEs TOTAL SYSTEM ADVANCED TECHNOLOGIES THAT WORK TOGETHER TO AUTOMATE COMPONENT EXTRACTION POWERFUL, BI-DIRECTIONAL COMMUNICATION Networked TACSI devices have bi-directional communication with TOMEs. TOMEs can also communicate bi-directionally with your BBIS. Using the TACSI system, data can be exported in real time or during scheduled sessions, in a wide range of formats, and integrated into your BBIS. Data formats include XML, CSV, EXC and TXT. The live network connection between the TACSI system, TOMEs and BBIS allows the BBIS to specify the separation process to be performed...
