Cell Saver - Reuse your own blood during surgery - Dr. Tim Sloan & Diane Phipps, RN

(This VHS tape has some shaking artifact in video) In 1985, thoracic surgeon, the late Dr. Timothy Sloan, brought viewers into the operating room of the Fremont Medical Center in Yuba City, California. He and nurse, Diane Phipps, discuss and demonstrate the new technology that can prevent the spread of blood borne infections such as AIDS and hepatitis by allowing patients to immediately save and reuse their own blood during surgery. Commonly known as a "cell saver", the intraoperative cell salvage machine suctions, washes, and filters blood so it can be given back to the patient's body instead of being thrown away. One advantage to this is the patient receives his/her own blood instead of donor blood, so there is no risk of contracting outside diseases. Because the blood is recirculated, there is no limit to the amount of blood that can be given back to the patient. The cell saver is also a viable alternative for patients with religious objections to receiving blood transfusions. The cell save technology (intraoperative cell salvage machine) continues to be used today in many surgery centers. Surgery is no longer performed at Fremont Hospital and has been shifted to the Rideout Regional Medical Center in Marysville, California, where a major new state-of-the art tower and trauma center open in 2016. Dr. Sloan moved to Stockton, California, many years ago where he continued to focus on thoracic surgery.
