MSC128D Sterile Cord Blood Collection Unit contains:

• 300 mL collection bag containing 21 mL CPD
• 40 mL rinsing bag containing 8 mL CPD
• 2-12 gauge needles with a protective shield (SECUVAM) for used needle
• Graduation label as visual aid to approximate the volume.

• Before use, verify the integrity of the collection unit (overwrap, outlet ports, tubing...).
• Only contents inside the inner wrap are sterile and acceptable for use in a sterile field if pouch is unopened and undamaged.

• Close all clamps 3A, 3B and 3C (clamp 9 should remain open).
• After clamping and sectioning of the umbilical cord, place the collection bag on a mixer and perform a venipuncture at lower end of the umbilical cord with first needle 1A.

3.  Open clamps 3A and 3C.

4.  Stimulate cord blood flow by massaging the cord from the top downward to increase volume of collection.

5.  When collection is completed, close clamps 3A and 3C.

6.  Remove needle 1A and slide down SECUVAM 2A (needle protector) over needle 1A.

7.  If necessary, perform a second umbilical venipuncture on the upper part of the umbilical cord (near the mother)

      a.  Open clamps 3B and 3C.

      b.  Perform venipuncture on the umbilical cord using other needle 1B.

      c.  When collection is completed, close clamps 3B and 3C.

      d.  Remove needle 1B and slide down SECUVAM 2B (needle protector) over needle 1B.

• Open clamp 3C.
• Snap the break-away cannula on top of rinsing bag 6.
• Roll up bag 6 on itself to empty 8 mL of anticoagulant (CPD) in the tubing to push the cord blood remaining in the tubing into the collection bag.  Do not strip the tubing.
• Close clamp 3C.
• Proceed to section V END OF COLLECTION if collection volume is less than 150 mL.  For collection volumes greater than 150 mL, proceed to section IV ADDITION OF ANTICOAGULANT INTO THE COLLECTION BAG.

Use this step only for collection volumes greater than 150 mL.

• Seal the tubing above Y junction 5.
• Move clamp 3C near to Y junction 5.
• Using a blood stripper, strip the tubing from Y junction 5 towards collection bag 8 expelling the anticoagulant in the tubing into collection bag 8.
• Repeat this operation 3 times.
• Mix collection bag 8.
• Close clamp 3C.
• Proceed to section V END OF COLLECTION.

• Close clamp 9 to secure the collection.
• Seal the tubing between clamp 9 and collection bag 8.
• Fill in collection volume and CPD volume on the collection bag label.  The amount of CPD is as follows:

         a.  21 mL - if no additional CPD is added.

         b.  29 mL - if additional 8 mL CPD from rinsing bag is added to the collection bag as directed in section IV.

4.  For optimal cord blood quality, maintain the cord blood at an ambient temperature (18-26°C / 64.4-78.8°F) or cold temperature (4-12°C / 39.2-53.6°F).
