Automated Partial Custom Prime

For patients with lower total blood volume or lower hematocrit:

  • Allows priming from replacement fluid line through return line. This can save a unit of blood that is typically used for priming the entire kit.
  • Amicus has the ability to mix saline with the prime source fluid to achieve a desired hematocrit in the return line.
  • Helps the patient remain isovolemic at the start of the procedure with hematocrit fluctuations.
