A. DESCRIPTION
MICRO is an arterial blood filter 27 or 40 µm screen.
The fluid path inside the filter is recommended for use to permit the
effective separation of gaseous emboli from the fluid. Removal is
performed by a suitable purge line.
Blood contact surfaces of Ph.I.S.I.O. device version have been coated
with Ph.I.S.I.O. (PC phosphorylcholine) coating. Devices coated with
Ph.I.S.I.O. are used when a coated blood path is desired. The
Ph.I.S.I.O. coating improves the blood compatibility of the device by
reducing platelet adhesion on the coated surfaces.
The device is single use, non-toxic, non pyrogenic, supplied STERILE
and packaged singly. Sterilised by ethylene oxide. The level of
ethylene oxide residuals in the device is within the limits established by
national regulations in the country of use. The device is available in the
following versions:
