IMUFLEX® WB-RP BLOOD BAG SYSTEM WITH INTEGRAL WHOLE BLOOD LEUKOCYTE REDUCTION FILTER (REMOVING PLATELETS) WITH DIVERSION BLOOD SAMPLING ARM® CPD/OPTISOL® SOLUTION

Read these instructions carefully before use. Rx ONLY.
Integral filter unit intended for leukocyte reduction of Whole Blood up to 8 hours after blood collection when Whole Blood is stored at ambient temperature or cooled towards 1–10°C
(transport temperature). Preparation of leukocyte reduced red blood cells and plasma units may be accomplished with this set. The leukocyte reduced blood components may then be
stored for the maximum allowable dating period as indicated in the section INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPONENT SEPARATION.

• For single use only. Sterile and non-pyrogenic fluid path. Sterilized by steam.
• Intended for the collection, processing and preservation of human blood and components.

PRECAUTIONS
• Do not use unless the solutions are clear.
• Avoid excessive heat and direct sunlight. Protect from freezing.
• Recommended storage conditions: Room Temperature (15-30°C/59-86°F).
CAUTION Do not use a dielectric tube sealer to seal the tubing while the needle is connected to the donor's body unless it is approved for such a purpose.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR BLOOD COLLECTION: Use aseptic technique
(See Fig. 1, Fig. 2 and Fig. 3)
Materials Needed:
VENOJECT ll Tube Holder (code P-1316R) or equivalent
VENOJECT ll Multi-Sample Luer Adapter (code MN *2000T) or equivalent
Evacuated Blood Collection Tubes

1. Prepare the blood bag following your institution's standard operating procedures.
2. Make a loose knot in the donor tubing below the "Y" and CLIKTIP (inline closure device) unless alternate methods are used to seal the tubing at the end of collection.
3. Temporarily clamp the donor tubing between the phlebotomy needle and the "Y".
4. Close the White Clamp below the diversion pouch.
5. Tube Holder/Luer Adapter Assembly:
a) Connect the VENOJECT Multi-Sample Luer Adapter to the VENOJECT Tube Holder (or equivalent) (Fig.1).

6. Suspend the collection bag as far as possible below the donor's arm.
7. Apply blood pressure cuff or tourniquet to donor's arm. Disinfect site of phlebotomy. If blood pressure cuff is used, inflate to approximately 60 mmHg.
8. Remove the needle cover and perform phlebotomy. Remove the temporary clamp on the donor tubing to permit blood flow into the Diversion Blood Sampling Arm pouch.
CAUTION Do not touch the needle after removing the needle protector. Assure that the White Clamp below the pouch is closed prior to initiating phlebotomy.
9. Secure the needle safety device in place following the manufacturer's instructions.
10. Secure donor tubing to donor's arm.
11. Position the diversion pouch with the notches up and the Tube Holder/Luer Adapter assembly (or port cap) down. When the level of blood in the pouch is approximately in line
with the notches, the diversion pouch is full. (Fig. 3a)
NOTE: The approximate fill volume of the pouch at the notches is 35 mL.
12. Permanently seal the tubing between the "Y" and the diversion pouch to maintain a closed system using an aluminum clip or a tube sealer approved for use with tubing connected to a donor. (Fig. 3b)
13. To initiate blood flow into the collection bag, break the CLlKTIP between the "Y" and the collection bag.
14. To avoid clot formation, collect samples as soon as possible from the diversion pouch as follows (Fig. 3b)
CAUTION Do not collect donor test samples until the tubing between the "Y" and the diversion pouch is permanently sealed.
a) Open the White Clamp on the tubing below the pouch to open the pathway for sampling.
b) Position the diversion pouch with the notches up and the Tube Holder/Luer Adapter assembly downward. Assure that any air in the pouch is at the top and will not enter the
blood collection tubes.
c) Insert blood collection tube firmly into the tube holder; when full, remove sample tube from holder. Repeat to collect additional samples.
NOTE: The pouch may be removed after the donor test samples are collected. A second seal must be made between the diversion pouch and the permanent seal
prior to removing the pouch.

15. Mix blood with anticoagulant in the collection bag and continue to mix at several intervals during collection and immediately after collection. If using an automated mixer, follow
manufacturer's instructions.
16. Collect labeled volume of blood (±10%).
17. When the desired amount of blood has been collected, seal the tubing or tighten the loose knot (white knot) prepared in step 2. Make a second seal between the first seal or knot and
the CLlKTIP below the "Y". Various methods may be used to seal tubing.
18. Release pressure on the donor's arm and remove the needle into the needle safety device following the manufacturer's instructions. Sever the donor tubing between the two seals
previously made below the CLlKTIP and "Y".

CAUTION Discard the Diversion Blood Sampling Arm and phlebotomy needle/donor tubing according to institutional procedures.
19. Seal and remove donor tubing from collection bag or strip donor tubing as follows:
a) To obtain a quality control prefiltration sample, strip blood from donor tubing into collection bag, mix well, and allow tubing to refill; repeat once. Leave an adequate length of tubing
containing the well-mixed anticoagulated whole blood attached to the collection bag.
OR
b) To maximize collection recovery, strip the tubing, mix well and seal tubing close to the collection bag without refilling. Remove tubing from collection bag.


INSTRUCTIONS FOR BLOOD FILTRATION1
(See Fig. 4)
NOTE: Wait 30 minutes after collection before filtering. Filtration can be accomplished at room temperature for units maintained at room temperature and filtered within 8 hours of
collection. Filtration can also be performed with units cooled towards 1-10°C within 8 hours of collection (e.g. during transport). If any unit has not completely filtered by 8
hours post collection, filtration must be completed at 1-6°C. Filtration can be unattended.

1Red blood cells collected from certain donors may have extended filtration times and the potential for ineffective filtration and leukoreduction.


1. Mix the unfiltered whole blood unit by inverting the collection bag #1 (pre-filter bag) several times.
2. Hang the collection bag #1 and extend the filtration set to full length. Verify that the filter is vertical and ensure all tubing is freely suspended without kinks.
3. Break the CLlKTIP at the outlet of the collection bag #1.
a) The filter housing will begin to fill with blood and expand on the non-textured side.
b) Blood will flow across the filter pads and expand the textured side of the filter housing.
c) Air from the bag and filter will be forced into the primary bag #2 (post-filtration bag).
CAUTION Do not squeeze or apply pressure on the filter while it is attached to the bag containing the filtered blood.
4. Filtration ends when the filter has emptied and the housing has collapsed onto the filter pads.
NOTE: Verify that collection bag #1 and pre-filtration tubing has emptied.
5. Gently squeeze the primary bag #2 to expel the air in the bag up the numbered segment tubing line and into the filter.
6. Fill the numbered segment tubing with blood while expelling the air.
7. Clamp the blood filled tubing before blood enters the filter.
8. Seal the tubing as close as possible to the filter outlet and properly dispose of the filter and collection bag #1.
9. Strip the post filter tubing into the primary bag #2, mix well, and allow tubing to refill; repeat once. Make an appropriate number of segments necessary for testing by sealing on or near
the X marks. Leave segments attached to the filtered whole blood unit.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPONENT SEPARATION
