Compoguard

CompoGuard® combines safety with efficiency in whole blood donation. The advantages are:

Prevention of back strain injuries to operators

Unique volume monitoring by the donors

Prevents venting of primary bag following donation

Improved mixing of inline systems

Highest efficiency of mobile data management

There are four different models:

CompoGuard® Complete

CompoGuard® Data

CompoGuard® Seal

CompoGuard® Basic

DonationMaster Net: PC program for radio communication of CompoGuard®

Highest efficiency of mobile data management

Radio frequency (RF) is by far the most efficient and easiest way of data transmission. RF automatically collects all donation data. RF is also used to update the CompoGuard® settings. All data is transferred to a notebook during the donation session without the need to press a button. The operators do not have to perform any PC activities. The auto-sense scanner enables rapid scanning to streamline the work flow still further.

Reliable DECT radio transmission technology

The restricted DECT radio transmission band ensures reliable and safe data transmission. The DECT band is restricted almost world wide, so signal disturbances are very unlikely to occur. DECT works with low power consumption resulting in very low electromagnetic radiation.

Optimal supervision of donation process

A comprehensive safety concept has been achieved with CompoGuard®. During initialization all CompoGuard® are set up for the same donation programs. The blood donations are protected by this function. This ensures maximum safety during the daily routine of a donation session. Additionally CompoGuard® assures the correct scanning and labeling of the barcodes on the bags and test tubes.

Bi-directional interface

CompoGuard® also offers a comprehensive concept of bi-directional data management. Barcodes of valid bag lot numbers as well as those of authorized operators are downloaded into CompoGuard® automatically by the bi-directional interface. As with Compomat the program selection can be done online. For mobile donations there is the option of selecting programs by the intelligent donation number or the panel barcode.

Documentation according to GMP

All relevant donation quality data are automatically acquired. The remaining data records shows each individual donation process in detail. The documentation of the sealing step is part of this data.
