Zimmer® Blood Reinfusion System

Dependable Hemovac Technology in a Closed Loop System

The Zimmer Blood Reinfusion System is an easy-to-use postoperative blood management tool that can help reduce the dependency on banked blood, including preoperative autologous donation. Fully integrated and completely portable, the Zimmer Blood Reinfusion System effectively salvages and filters the patient's own blood postoperatively.

Unlike other systems that require mechanical devices or pumps, the Zimmer Blood Reinfusion System uses its own Hemovac Technology for low, gentle suction that helps reduce the risk of hemolysis. And, since it is a completely closed system, it also reduces the risk of contamination.  

Easy Setup, Easy Use

The Zimmer Blood Reinfusion System requires a minimal number of steps for assembly and operation. All connections are identified for easy setup. No batteries or other external sources are needed. Once drainage and reinfusion are completed, the entire system can be safely discarded.
