Aastrom Cell Production System Safety Analyses

The Aastrom CPS is an integrated system of instrumentation and single-use consumable kits that implements Aastrom's patented "single-pass perfusion" process in a fully automated, closed fluid path culturing system to optimize cell growth and viability.

This proprietary system provides nutrients to cells by mimicking the natural cell-growth environment, and enabling human cells to grow while retaining high biological function. In addition, this system provides GMP-compliant manufacturing and automated process control for the commercial-scale production of cells to be used in medical practice.

We performed FMEAs, software hazard analyses, fault tree analysis, and verification cross-reference matrix on the CPS incubator, processor and system manager.
