WHAT SERVICES ARE PROVIDED BY PERSTAT?
AUTOTRANSFUSION SERVICES
PerStat offers assistance in perfusion, autotransfusion, platelet gel application, intra-aortic
balloon pump initial timing and transport, PTCA coverage, and equipment rental. PerStat can
provide a bundled price for perfusion services, autotransfusion services, and products at your
request. Disposable products can be provided on a true consignment-based program, to help
you reduce expensive inventory, and pay only for products used during each surgical
procedure.
Autotransfusion is a process when a person receives their own blood for a transfusion,
instead of banked donor blood, which can be costly. Autotransfusion is considered when
blood loss from a clean, surgical wound is in excess of 20% or more. During the
autotransfusion process, blood is salvaged, processed, and reinfused to the patient without
complications. Autotransfusion is the safest form of blood transfusion a patient can receive.

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?
From products to equipment to personnel, PerStat is your answer to cardiac perfusion and
autotransfusion needs.
Autotransfusion concentrates red blood cells free of activated platelets, activated clotting
factors, activated compliments, extracellular potassium, and free hemoglobin. This process
holds no risk of infectious disease transmission, and transfusion reactions. Since
autotransfusion remains an immediate source of autologous blood, it is accepted by
Jehovah's Witnesses. Autotransfusion is used in General, Orthopedic, and Trauma Surgery.
PLATELET GEL SERVICES
Platelet gel is an autologous source of a concentrated mix of platelet-derived growth factor
(PDGF), along with transforming growth factor-beta (TGF). When used in surgery, operations,
post-operative procedures, or wound healing, platelet gel: improves healing time, decreases
pain, decreases the risks of infection, and promotes bone regeneration.
Platelet Gel applications can be used in: Cardiovascular, Thoracic, Trauma, Transplant,
Urology, Plastic Repair, Head and Neck; Ear and Throat, Oral, Central Nervous System; Nerve
Repair, Gastrointestinal, and Orthopedic surgeries.
