Returned to the
Donor or
Patient
The volume of anticoagulant infused is calculated as follows:
1. Determine the total volume of anticoagulant in the plasma and platelet bags
using Table 7-1 above.
2. Read the volume of anticoagulant used (“AC Used”) from the HaemoUpdate
or Procedure Complete Screen.
3. The volume of anticoagulant infused equals AC used – AC in product.
