During the transfusion process, existing blood transfusion sets may experience tiny air bubbles in the blood, causing the fluid level to drop below the Murphy dropper. This necessitates manual venting, which can damage red blood cell structure and potentially lead to air embolism.

Method used

An air filtration structure for a blood transfusion set drip tube was designed, comprising a filter assembly and a clamping assembly. The filter assembly includes a support block, a filter screen, and a filter membrane. The clamping assembly includes a movable groove, a squeezing block, and a threaded rod, which are used to isolate and expel micro-air bubbles and to seal the transfusion tube when changing the blood bag.

Benefits of technology

It effectively isolates and removes tiny air bubbles in the blood, preventing gas from entering the dropper, thus preventing the liquid level from dropping and air embolism. At the same time, it reduces the amount of gas entering when changing blood bags, protecting the structure of red blood cells.
