BLOOD SAMPLING APPARATUS

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a blood sampling apparatus which can prevented initial flow sampling operations can be reliably performed, and bacterial contamination of blood (blood component) and improve safety of transfusion of specific blood component or blood consequently since an operator can easily and reliably perform opening and closing operations of a flow path opening and closing means at the time of initial flow sampling operations. SOLUTION: The blood component sampling apparatus 1 has a blood component sampling circuit 2. The blood component sampling circuit 2 has an initial flow sampling line 27 for sampling the initial flow of blood (initial flow of collected blood) sampled from a donor. At the time of initial flow sampling operations, opening or closing state of the flow path by clamps 91-93 (opening or closing state of the pinchcocks 91-93) is detected. Procedure information showing the procedure including opening or closing operations of the pinchcocks 91-93 in the initial flow collecting operations is created according to the result of detection and the procedure information is indicated on a touch panel 19.
