Can someone please tell me if the blood is withdrawn into the machine (the machine acting as an extension of the circulatory system) and put right back in the patient, or is the blood taken out and put back in the machine, thereby leaving the body completely? Thanks. I hope that makes sense.
@FionaWest Question: Whose plasma is used for the exchange - patient's or donor's???? The diagram seemed to indicate an extension of the circulatory system?
Interesting video. I suggest the RN remove her wrist watch next time prior to handwashing for what is an aseptic procedure as an example of good practice within the critical care arena.
