Post Open-Heart Autotransfusion

Our Blood Management Program has been asked to develop a protocol and provide education to our CICU nurses on continuous post OH Autotransfusion. We use the Atrium Ocean Chest Drainage System. Our nurses understand that not all "no blood" patients require the continuous autotransfusion, but they want to be educated about the procedure for the few patients that do require it. I would appreciate any protocols you are willing to share, and also illustrations that might be useful for educational purposes.

Thank you for your help.
