WARNINGS
• Do not apply the vacuum during priming and
recirculation procedure.
• It is recommended not to exceed -75.2 mmHg
(-10 KPa) when applying negative pressure to
the cardiotomy/venous reservoir.
• Periodically check functioning of the vacuum
regulating device and the degree of vacuum.
2) INITIATING BYPASS
OPENING THE ARTERIAL AND VENOUS LINES
If performing vacuum-assisted drainage, check
that all the connections are closed and apply the
vacuum to the cardiotomy/venous reservoir.
3) DURING BYPASS
CHECKING THE VENOUS RETURN
With vacuum-assisted drainage, the vacuum
applied to the cardiotomy/ venous reservoir must
be adjusted in order to obtain adequate venous
return.
LOW FLOW RECIRCULATION
In all cases that are expected a circulatory
arrest and the opening of a shunt between the
arterial and venous circuit, to maintain blood
on the move, it is necessary to stop the vacuum
application.
If is necessary to interrupt vacuum application,
remove one of the leakproof caps on the
cardiotomy/venous reservoir and remove clamp
from the collecting line to the suction source for
the VAVD technique.
Resume the arterial pump flow to the value
previously set. In case of vacuum-assisted
drainage, re-insert leakproof cap on the
cardiotomy/venous reservoir and re insert the
clamp on the collecting line to the suction source.
Gradually increase the negative pressure to
reach an adequate blood drainage.
