- The device can help blood centers make the process of collecting platelets from blood donations more efficient, increasing availability for people who need them for treatment. The device also improves the platelet supply
- The system helps to reduce costs and improve overall efficiency by obtaining more blood products from the same number of donors. Reveos has the potential to reduce the working hours needed by laboratory staff by ~30%
