RBC tend to leak past most available separators. How is mdi separator system different from other brands ?
Most blood separation systems rely on differential migration speeds of RBC and plasma in a matrix and when blood with high hematocrit are applied, the RBC leak past the separator onto the membrane. mdi blood separators virtually immobilize RBC where blood is applied and RBC do not go past the separator even with excess applied blood with high hematocrit.
