Hi Mara, We have 10 cellwashers of Sorvall and 5 cellwasher Helmer. We have been using Helmer since last year and half. They are CRAP. In 60% of cases we have problem with Check Cells not working. In 80% of cases the numbers on the tube get wiped out after a 4 cycle wash. Sorvall are comparatively good. We are a facility which processes approximately more than 100,000 samples a year. -
We use pneumatic tube system to send STAT red cells & plts across the street to the hospital blood bank. We are the main crossmatch laboratory in the city & region. So, We get STAT samples for crossmatch from hospital blood bank & after crossmatch we send red cells to them by TUBE system. So, I don't think there should be any problem using tube system until & unless it is continuously monitored & maintained.
