same™ is a new generation of intraoperative autotransfusion for haemorrhagic or high-risk surgery, able to recovering platelets and red blood cells.
“Our medical device, which is positioned as an alternative or complement to allogenic blood transfusions (from a donor), offers several advantages: First, autologous transfusion (with the patient’s own blood) reduces the risk of contamination and incompatibility for the patient. Secondly, our technology simplifies the work of physicians. And finally, it responds to a public health issue by reducing the pressure on blood banks and reducing costs.”
– Francis GADRAT, MD and co-founder
During the operation, same™ collects the patient’s spilled blood, processes and concentrates it for retransfusion with red blood cells and platelets.
This process avoids the risks of incompatibility, contamination and post-op complications induced by donor blood transfusion.
