AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing apheresis systems lack donor-specific predictive capabilities and adaptive vein monitoring, often resulting in slower than desired flow rates due to reliance on a constant initial flow rate and failing to account for individual donor characteristics.

Method used

A neural network system is deployed to optimize fluid flow rates by receiving donor-specific input parameters, applying activation functions, selecting relevant input layers based on data qualification thresholds, and adjusting weights through supervised classification to predict optimal vein characteristics.

Benefits of technology

The system enables accurate, donor-specific optimization of fluid flow rates during apheresis procedures, reducing computational resources and improving system response times while enhancing vein monitoring.

Abstract

A system for optimizing fluid flow rate in a vein of a subject during apheresis procedure equipped with neural network training capacities. The system receives input of parametric vein characteristic of the subject and outputs a subject-specific flow rate continuously throughout the procedure to enable optimal control of the subject's vein condition while maintaining maximum flow rates specific to the subject.
