Plasma Thawing
Products

The Thawing Challenge

Currently blood and tissue warming and thawing devices are slow, heavy, wasteful, inaccurate, prone to contamination, require costly labor and maintenance.

long-wait-times@2x

Long Wait Times

The current devices need roughly half an hour to warm up to function; clinicians tend to leave them plugged in 24/7 which increases energy use. When devices are ready to work, the actual thawing and warming takes up to half an hour.

blood-waste@2x

Blood, Plasma and Tissue Waste

Due to longer than necessary wait times for warming and thawing blood, plasma and tissue excess product is processed and becomes waste.

no-temp-control@2x

No Temperature Control

Tracking and monitoring actual product bag or vial temperature as it thaws is hit or miss with only ambient temperature being reported delivering inconsistent results.

no-product-tracking@2x

No Product Tracking

Water dependent devices cannot record real time processing on their own forcing technicians and doctors to use separate and often hand written tracking and recording.

recalbration@2x

Large Size/Frequent Recalibration

Current devices rely on 3 to 5 gallons/11.25 to 19 liters of heated water making them big and heavy requiring permanent lab bench space near a wet sink while being energy hogs. If moved they require extensive calibration, sanitization and maintenance.

tethered-water@2x

Tethered to Water Source

Current devices need wet sinks for routine use and, like a fish tank, require twice weekly water changes with sanitization. Water also corrodes and increase the risk of cross contamination. Noisy agitation is required to mix the product.

ZipThaw_Sleeve_X2

ZipSleeve™

ZipThaw™ uses a disposable yet durable leak proof sleeve that eliminates concerns of bursting bags and the sleeve contains technology that enables consistent temperature control of the final product.

How It Works

Easy - to - use
Plug - Prepare - Place - Play

1

Prepare ZipSleeve™

Place a frozen bag of plasma into a ZipSleeve™.

This patented disposable component is multi-use and leak-proof. Putting frozen, product into ZipSleeve™ protects the thawing device, prevents contamination, and works with ZipThaw™ for rapid thawing. If a bag of plasma ruptures, simply toss out the ZipSleeve™.

2

Place in ZipThaw™

With the frozen plasma in a ZipSleeve™, place it into one of the two ZipThaw™ chambers.

3

Retrieve Ready-to-Use Plasma

In short order, the plasma is thawed to your specification with software recording its progress every step of the way. Data is easily transferred via the USB and/or ethernet port.
