Abstract:
A system for automatically withdrawing blood from a patient and testing various parameters of the blood, such as oxygen saturation, hemoglobin, gas content (PO. sub. 2, PCO. sub. 2) and pH, includes a withdrawal unit which automatically withdraws a measured volume of blood, and returns all of it to the patient except a small measured quantity which is provided to an analysis unit that measures the gas content and pH. The withdrawal unit includes provision for continuously monitoring patients' blood pressure, irrigation from a standard I. V. source between blood withdrawals, or a constant low flush of saline, alternatively, as well as detection of any air in the blood, which results in shutting down the system and activating an air alarm. The withdrawal unit also has provision for automatically withdrawing a small sample of blood, measuring oxygen content, and returning all blood to the patient, all on a programmed basis. The analysis unit includes two-point gas and pH calibration and includes use of calibration fluid for washout.
