Abstract
A system for collecting plasma comprises a separator to separate whole blood from a donor into a plasma product and red blood cells, an anticoagulant line to introduce anticoagulant to the whole blood, a touchscreen, and a controller. The controller is configured to receive donor parameters electronically from a donor management system. The controller is configured to use a target volume for plasma product and/or raw plasma which is based at least in part on donor height and weight used to calculate total donor blood volume, the target volume for plasma product and/or raw plasma based on the total donor blood volume. The controller is configured to control the system to operate at least three draw and return phases to withdraw whole blood from a donor and separate the whole blood into the plasma product and the red blood cells and to return the red blood cells to the donor.
