Variations in the Circuit of a Pump-oxygenator.
S INCE THE ADVENT OF OPEN-HEART SURgery , surgeons and pump-oxygenator technicians have striven to niake their work more simple, yet remain within safe boundaries. The purpose of this paper is to present two details we have adopted in our pump-oxygenator circuit. In many pump-oxygenators, the venous blood from the patient is returned to the top of a venous reservoir where it then falls down int...
متن کاملHeart pump and oxygenator.
1124 T ms PAPER is a general review of the development of the artificial heart-lung to facilitate open-heart surgery. At the close of World War II many centers began investigating the possibility of total cardiac bypass. Oven the past decade, pump oxygenerators of various types have become popular and recent clinical successes throughout the world have given further impetus to the study of prob...
متن کاملTrouble shooting the extracorporeal membrane oxygenator circuit and patient.
Patients requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) often become totally dependent on the mechanical life support. The Extracorporeal Life Support Organization (ELSO) reports 2486 incidents of mechanical complications in 5905 ECMO supports. To help decrease the number of mechanical complications, an active quality assurance program was initiated at our institution. This resulted in...
متن کاملFibronectin coating of oxygenator membranes enhances endothelial cell attachment
BACKGROUND Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) can replace the lungs' gas exchange capacity in refractory lung failure. However, its limited hemocompatibility, the activation of the coagulation and complement system as well as plasma leakage and protein deposition hamper mid- to long-term use and have constrained the development of an implantable lung assist device. In a tissue engineeri...
