An anticoagulant delivery device forming part of an aspiration wand for use in connection with autologous blood transfusion wherein an anticoagulant is delivered along essentially the entire internal periphery of the aspiration wand in the vicinity of the aspiration tip and intimately mixed with aspirated blood.

Anticoagulant delivery means for aspiration wand

An aspiration wand assembly having an associated metering valve for metering liquid anticoagulant to blood aspirated by the wand. The metering valve includes a flexible diaphragm normally obstructing conduit which transmits anticoagulant from a remote source to the tip of the aspiration wand. An orifice communicates the diaphragm with the interior of the aspiration wand so that various negative pressures in the wand correspondingly draw the diaphragm into any one of a plurality of positions away from the obstructing position.
