Bayer Pharmaceuticals Corporation Trasylol (aprotinin), manufactured by Bayer, is a broad spectrum, natural protease inhibitor. Aprotinin through its inhibition of multiple mediators results in the attenuation of the systemic inflammatory response (SIRS), fibrinolysis and thrombin generation. Aprotinin inhibits pro-inflammatory cytokine release and maintains glycoprotein homeostasis. In platelets aprotinin reduces glycoprotein loss (e.g., Gplb, Gpllb/llla), while in granulocytes it prevents the expression of pro-inflammatory adhesive glycoproteins (e.g., CD11b).The effects of aprotinin results in the reduction of the inflammatory response which translates into a decreased need for blood transfusions, reduced bleeding and decreased mediastinal re-exploration for bleeding.

The OrthoPAT system is now available direct from Haemonetics.The SmartSuction HARMONY™ Powered Suction Device supplies high air flow, self-regulating suction that rapidly removes fluid from the surgical field at low suction levels…bringing “high-tech” to the “no-tech” world of surgical suction. It is designed to work as a companion product to Haemonetics’ family of autotransfusion systems: Cell Saver®, cardioPAT™, and OrthoPAT® systems. It is small, easy to use, and mounts easily onto an IV pole or a Cell Saver system’s cart.For over 30 years, the Company’s flagship surgical product, the Cell Saver Autologous Blood Recovery System, has set the standard for speed and performance in cell salvage during moderate to high blood-loss surgeries. Our newest model, the Cell Saver 5+, leverages our 30 years of autotransfusion knowledge and experience to offer features and quality that make your job easier. The quality, reliability, and ease-of-use of the Cell Saver system make it the autotransfusion system of choice around the world.
