Blood-Donation System

摘要

A blood-donation system and methods of usage are disclosed. The system includes a blood-donating chair configured to interoperate with various blood-processing apparatuses. The system further combines into a self-contained system all devices, communications pathways and power supplies for various powered devices employed during a blood-collecting session. The system may further interoperate with other blood-donation systems allowing for continuous monitoring of multiple blood-collecting sessions at a single user interface. According to another embodiment, in addition to interoperability, the system is further configured for upgradability, in which, various donor-station devices may be mounted and remounted.
