Overview
Chapter 1: Overview Product Description The Angel® Concentrated Platelet Rich Plasma (cPRP) System (Angel® cPRP System) consists of a blood processing device and disposable products used for separation of whole blood or mixture of blood and bone marrow into red cells, platelet poor plasma, and platelet rich plasma. The processing disposable, the Angel® Concentrated Platelet Rich Plasma (cPRP) System Processing Set, is designed for single-patient use. The variable volume separation chamber allows the clinician to process from 40 ml to 180 ml of autologous whole blood or mixture of blood and bone marrow in a single cycle. A total of 180 ml can be processed over three (3) cycles per disposable.
Description of the Angel® Concentrated Platelet Rich Plasma (cPRP) System How the Angel® Concentrated Platelet Rich Plasma (cPRP) System Works The Angel® Concentrated Platelet Rich Plasma (cPRP) System processes a determined volume of anticoagulated whole blood or mixture of blood and bone marrow from a patient and separates the blood/bone marrow into its primary components: red blood cells (RBC), platelet poor plasma (PPP), and platelet rich plasma (PRP). The basic steps are: Blood Collection: The whole blood or mixture of blood and bone marrow is drawn from a patient and mixed with a citrate anticoagulant. The collected whole blood/bone marrow is mixed in a 7:1 ratio (7 parts whole blood to 1 part citrate anticoagulant (ACD-A)). Processing: The Angel® (cPRP) Processing Set utilizes a variable volume separation chamber (40 ml – 180 ml) which allows the clinician to determine the amount of preoperative blood/bone marrow volume to be processed. The Angel® cPRP Processing Set allows for up to three processing cycles per disposable. Once the anticoagulated whole blood or mixture of blood and bone marrow has been dispensed into the whole blood compartment of the three-compartment reservoir bag, the clinician selects the desired volume of autologous whole blood/bone marrow they elect to process and presses the “Start” button on the touch screen display. The Angel® Concentrated Platelet Rich Plasma (cPRP) System will fill the variable volume disposable with the pre-determined volume of anticoagulated whole blood or mixture of blood and bone marrow, separate the whole blood/bone marrow through centrifugation, and collect the primary blood components (RBC, PPP, and PRP) in their respective collection compartments. Administration: Reinfusion of blood components is under the control and supervision of the physician in charge. Follow your institution’s blood administration protocol for appropriate handling and labeling of blood components.

Installing the Disposables
Chapter 2: Installing the Disposables Angel® cPRP Processing Set Description The Angel® cPRP Processing Set consists of a pre-connected variable volume separation chamber, a tubing set with a platelet sensor/valve assembly, and a three-compartment reservoir bag for the collection of blood products (whole blood, red blood cells, and platelet poor plasma). The Angel® cPRP Processing Set also contains a 20 ml luer lock syringe for the collection of platelet rich plasma (PRP), two 60 ml specimen cups for use in a sterile field, a whole blood bag spike adapter, male-female luer plugs, and labels for collected blood components. Major Components (see Figure 2-1) Variable Volume Separation Chamber: The Angel® cPRP Processing Set utilizes a variable volume separation chamber that can process from 40 ml – 180 ml of anticoagulated autologous whole blood or mixture of blood and bone marrow in a single cycle. The Angel® cPRP Processing Set is capable of processing up to three (3) cycles per disposable. The top half of the variable volume separation chamber (the hard plastic component) is the separation chamber plate. The separation chamber plate is used to seat the variable volume separation chamber in the centrifuge. Platelet Cuvette/Valve Assembly: The platelet cuvette/valve assembly contains three major components: (1) the platelet cuvette, (2) the pump loop tubing and (3) the rotating valve. The platelet cuvette is seated in the platelet sensor and is used to optimize the collection of the separated blood components. The pump loop tubing is inserted around the pump, which moves volume from the whole blood compartment of the three-compartment reservoir bag to the variable volume separation chamber and from the variable volume separation chamber to the various collection compartments for the separated blood products (PRP, PPP and RBC). The rotating valve rotates throughout the course of the processing cycle to direct the whole blood, the mixture of blood and bone marrow, or its separated components through the appropriate pathway. The platelet cuvette/valve assembly has been designed so that the operator can easily install the platelet cuvette/valve assembly while insuring that the platelet cuvette is properly seated in the platelet sensor and that the rotating valve is properly seated on the valve assembly driver.
