BLOOD TRANSFUSIONMY WIFE HAD more than one transfusion, and from what I remember, the extra inlets allowneedles to add drugs if needed and also extra in case one fails. The wires are safetyprecautions. They are connected to serial numbers that are also printed on the patients wristband. TWO nurses have to start a transfusion. One nurse reads the serial numbers on the patient and the other nurse reads the serial numbers on the bagsand make sure they match. Once they have a positive match, they cut the wires and startusing the bag. If they had the wrong bag and wrong type blood, they would kill the patient. Any I.V. nurses out there for confirmation? Thanks! <<>>

What is the difference between contra flow and parallel flow?

These terms are usually used in conjuction with fluid-fluid heat exchangers. In both cases, the two fluids in the exchanger are moving in parallel flowpaths with each other. In contraflow, the fluids move in opposite directions along those paths, so the two inlets are on opposite ends of the exchanger. In parallel flow, the fluids move in the same direction, so the inlets are on the same end.
