V-PET® makes platelet therapy simple. Blood is drawn and
loaded into a bag above the filter. Blood flows through
the highly specialised filter under gravity. As platelets reach the filter, they are
selectively retained. When the filtration is complete, a harvest
solution is backflushed through the filter to recover the
platelets. This harvested product is the platelet therapy,
and is ready to use. It’s that simple.
Since the patient is the donor and recipient,
there are no immune reactions to the
platelet concentrate.
- Simple, point-of-use application
- No centrifuge, power supply or outside lab processing required
- Single-use, disposable system is cost-effective and efficient
- Gravity filtration is gentle on platelets, creating a high quality platelet therapy rich in
growth factors
- 6 mL sample volume provides the recommended dose for most treatment regimens
- Experienced users average 30 minutes per treatment
