It consists of a 250 ml centrifuge bowl, tubing harness, pump/valve cartridge, waste bag, and reinfusion bag. The device processes autologous blood to recover red blood cells for reinfusion. It is used in clinical settings by healthcare professionals. The modification includes a design change to the internal spacer of the Baylor centrifuge bowl and the addition of a one-year expiration date based on accelerated aging testing. The device functions as a mechanical blood processing set; it does not involve software or automated algorithms. ## Clinical Evidence No clinical testing was performed. Bench testing included in vitro bovine blood testing for Blood Salvage and Plasma Sequestration protocols, and accelerated aging studies to validate the one-year expiration date. ## Technological Characteristics Disposable plastic processing set including a 250 ml centrifuge bowl, tubing harness, and bags. Features a modified internal spacer in the Baylor centrifuge bowl. Operates via mechanical centrifugation. No software, electronics, or energy sources are integral to the disposable set itself. ## Regulatory Identification An autotransfusion apparatus is a device used to collect and reinfuse the blood lost by a patient due to surgery or trauma. ## Predicate Devices - Current BRAT® 2 Standard Volume Processing Set ([K933625](/device/K933625.md), [K933625](/device/K933625.md), [K962689](/device/K962689.md)) ## Reference Devices - Modified Standard Volume processing set ([K973627](/device/K973627.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).

The tubing harness consists of tubing, a pump/valve cartridge, and various connectors. Modifications to the BRAT® 2 Standard Volume Processing Set covered in this 510(k) consist of addition of a one-year expiration date to the Modified Standard Volume processing set covered in 510(k) K973627 and a design change to the internal spacer of the Baylor centrifuge bowl. #### INDICATIONS FOR USE: The COBE BRAT® 2 Standard Volume Processing Set is indicated for use for recovery and/or processing of autologous blood. {1}------------------------------------------------ ### TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS: The Modified BRAT® 2 Standard Volume Processing Set is a modification of its predicate device, (510(k) # K933625, K933625, K962689) the Current BRAT® 2 Standard Volume Processing Set and was cleared for marketing per 510(k) K973627. This 510(k) covers the addition of a one-year expiration date to the product. ### NONCLINICAL TEST RESULTS: The Modified BRAT® 2 Standard Volume Processing Set was tested to assure that it met its functional specifications. In vitro blood testing was done to assure the performance of the modified device was comparable to the predicate device. In vitro bovine blood testing consisted of Blood Salvage test protocols and Plasma Sequestration test protocols. Devices tested in this 510(k) were exposed to an accelerated aging process which produces a one year expiration date. The results find improved wash efficiency for the modified device based on reduction in estimated Heparin Load to Patient found in bovine Blood Salvage tests. ## CLINICAL TEST RESULTS: No clinical testing was performed. #### CONCLUSION: The Modified BRAT® 2 Standard Volume Processing Set is substantially equivalent to its predicate device, the Current BRAT 2 Standard Volume Processing Set. {2}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
