A platelet agitator is an essential piece of equipment used in medical facilities, blood banks, and research laboratories for storing platelets at a controlled temperature and constant agitation. It plays a crucial role in maintaining the viability and quality of platelets, which are vital components in blood clotting and transfusion procedures.

Platelet Agitator is a specialized medical device designed for the continuous agitation and storage of platelet concentrates. It is commonly used in blood banks and clinical laboratories to maintain the viability and functionality of platelets by providing a controlled and consistent agitation.

Key Features:

Capacity:
Can accommodate up to 48 platelet bags, depending on the configuration and size of the bags.

Agitation Mechanism:
Provides gentle, uniform, and continuous agitation to prevent platelet aggregation and maintain optimal platelet function.
Typically uses a horizontal shaking motion to ensure even distribution and prevent sedimentation.

Temperature Control:
Often paired with a temperature-controlled chamber to maintain the platelets at the recommended storage temperature (usually around 22°C ±2°C).
Some models may have integrated temperature control systems.
