Abstract

Plasma expressor manual top and bottom is an equipment used for separating plasma and buffy coat removed red blood cells. It is useful for all types of blood component bag. It is a mechanical device, which exerts uniform pressure on the blood bag during the separation of components. The plasma expressor includes a pressure plate (1), a handle hook (3), a rubber sheet (4), stainless steel springs (5), a steel rod (6), a expressor body (7) and a hanger (8). The current automated expressor is costly and requires maintenance. As no electrical components are used in this device, the manual top and bottom expressor is cheaper and requires no maintenance.

Description

1. Title
PLASMA EXPRESSOR MANUAL TOP AND BOTTOM
2. Technical field of invention
This invention related to improvement in device for preparation of Leuko Reduced Red Blood Cells.
3. Background and the 'prior art'
Many blood bank with component separation do not available Leuko Reduced Red Blood Cells, because previously automated plasma expressor top and bottom is costly. Causes many adverse blood transfusion reactions to patients.
4. Object of the invention
The aim of invention is to avail Leuko Reduced Red Blood Cells at all component blood bank to reduce the following adverse blood transfusion reactions.
Leukocyte in blood components can cause:
Non- hemolytic febrile transfusion reaction (NHFTR)
Human-Leukocyte antigen (HLA) alloimmunization
Transmission of leukotropic viruses (Cytomegalovirus)
(CMV), Epstein - Barr Virus (EBV) and- human - T-cell lymphotropic type (HTLV-1)
Transfusion related Graft versus host disease Transfusion related acute lung injury (TRALI)
Transfusion related immunosuppressant
5. Statement of invention

Multitransfused patients like thalassaemic
Leukemia
Aplastic anemia
Immunosupressed patients
Immunodeficient patients
Multiparous women
Prevention of recurrent FNHTRs
Prevention or delay of primary alloimmunization to HLA antigen Prevention of CMV transmission in at risk individuals.
Indications under investigation:

6. A summary of invention
Conclusion
Red cell concentrates have on an average 108 leukocytes (one 'log leukocytes reduction). Thus the incidences of FNHTR are significantly reduced in comparison to red cells in additive solution prepared without removing buffy coat.
The yield of platelets in platelet concentrates prepared from buffy coat is on an average 6-9 x 10'° and leuko-reduction is about 90% which is significantly more than that prepared from PRP. Platelet concentrates have on average 107 leukocytes.
Leukocytes arc removed before storage, so less amount of cytokines are formed, and the number of degenerated white cells is less in red cells and platelet concentrate. Incidence of FNHTRs is further reduced by their transfusion.
Initial hard spin causes more yield of plasma leaving very little amount of plasma in red cells, this reduces the incidence of allergic and anaphylactic reactions after red cells transfusion. Besides, the yield of FFP is more and there by better yield of cryoprecipitate controlled by handle itselt. It is adjustable and regulates the pressure of pressure plate. (Fig.2)
(6) Steel rod- It is attached to a mechanism of spring, pressure plate and handle.
(Fig-3)
(7) Expressure body- It is made of thick steel plate. It contains the spring assembly with a pressure plate attached in front and handle attached on lateral wall. (Fig. 1)
(8) Hanger- It is fitted at the top of expressor body in horizontal position. It's function is to hold the centrifuged blood bag. (Fig. 1) Operating Procedure: The plasma expressor manual top and bottom has a transparent pressure plate driven by an adjustable stainless steel spring mechanism which has a handle attached to it. Hook the handle and unlock the pressure plate. Place the centrifuged blood bag on the hanger provided, lock the pressure plate and unhook the 7. A brief description of the accompanying drawing

Equipment Sketch and controls
(1) Pressure Plater- Pressure plate is a thick, transparent acrylic flat plate which applies uniform pressure on the blood bag by means of a spring loaded mechanism. The pressure plate has a lock on one side by which the plate can be opened, which allows the blood bag to be placed between pressure plate and expressor body.
There is a gap both above and below the plate allowing top and bottom satellite bag to be attached. This differs from the conventional manual plasma expressor in which there in a gap only on the top while the lower end of the plate is attached to the body. (Fig.l) (2) Handler- Handle is a stainless steel rod attached to the lateral side of expressor body which is provided with a ball at the end for ease of handling. It is movable in small angles to be hooked and unhooked. Pressing the handle slides the pressure plate away from the expressor body in a way which allows the blood bag to be placed in the gap. (Fig.l)
(3) Hook:-
Hook is used to hold the handle. When the handle is placed inside the hook,, the acrylic plate slide back allowing easy placement and removal of the centrifuged bag between the acrylic pressing plate and the expressor body. (Fig.l)
(4) Rubber Sheet- It is "fixed between the expressor body and pressure plate. The function is to minimize the gap and help in better uniform extraction of the components. (Fig.l)
(5) Stainless Steel Spring- It is situated in the bottom of the equipment. The spring is attached to a stainless steel rod which itself is connected to the pressure plate allowing the movement of the plate to be Break the 'break off valve' on the top of the blood bag for plasma satellite bag and on the bottom of the blood bag for red- ^ells SAGM bag, this expresses the plasma and red cells into their respective bags.
Observe the plasma and red cells flowing out of the primary bag to satellite bag. When the 'plasma and the buffy coat' portion reach the tube, clamp, the tube. Same procedure to be done for red cells SAGM bag. Release the pressure on the primary bag by putting the handle in the hooked position.
Use a tube sealer to seal off the tube and detach the plasma bag and red cells SAGM bag from primary bag. It leaves leukocytes rich buffy coat and a small amount of red cells in the primary bag.
