  4. UK CELL SALVAGE ACTION GROUP EDUCATION WORKBOOK Information and Best Practice • Patients with religious requirements • Set up of equipment may differ • Requirements should be discussed with the patient prior to use • All relevant staff should be made aware of these requirements

  5. UK CELL SALVAGE ACTION GROUP EDUCATION WORKBOOK Information and Best Practice • Monitoring the system • The operator is responsible for the machine throughout the procedure • The operator should be working within the vicinity of the machine to allow them to monitor the system and respond to alarms • The operator should ensure that necessary procedures are carried out e.g. emptying the waste bag

  6. UK CELL SALVAGE ACTION GROUP EDUCATION WORKBOOK Information and Best Practice • Potential Contamination • The decision to use blood that is potentially contaminated with bacteria, amniotic fluid or malignant cells should be made by the clinicians caring for the patients, taking into account the latest evidence and considering the risks and benefits for the individual patient.

  7. UK CELL SALVAGE ACTION GROUP EDUCATION WORKBOOK Information and Best Practice • Procedural problems • The responsible clinician should be made aware of any problems that have occurred during the process e.g. contamination of the collection reservoir with non-IV substances, so that the decision to reinfuse under these circumstances can be made based on the relative risks and benefits
