The Sequestra 1000 autotransfusion system performs both high-speed red blood cell salvage and blood component sequestration. The Sequestra 1000 system enables you to harvest an effective therapeutic dose of concentrated platelets (at least 20% of preoperative circulating platelets) without hemodynamically compromising the patient. It also assures consistent sequestration of a concentrated, therapeutic dose. (1-6)
