Additional Information for Capillary Membrane Oxygenator
Capillary Membrane Oxygenators are medical devices used in cardiopulmonary bypass procedures. They are part of the supply class Medical And Surgical Instruments, Equipment, And Supplies, which falls under the supply group Medical, Dental, And Veterinary Equipment And Supplies.
Capillary Membrane Oxygenators are designed to provide oxygenation and carbon dioxide removal during open-heart surgeries or other procedures that require temporary bypass of the heart and lungs. They consist of a bundle of hollow fibers made of biocompatible materials, such as silicone or polypropylene, which are enclosed in a housing.
During the procedure, the patient's blood is diverted from the heart and lungs to the oxygenator. The blood flows through the hollow fibers, while oxygen is supplied to the fibers on the outside. This allows for efficient gas exchange, where oxygen is transferred into the blood, and carbon dioxide is removed.
Capillary Membrane Oxygenators are essential in maintaining adequate oxygenation and carbon dioxide removal during cardiopulmonary bypass procedures. They are typically used in conjunction with a heart-lung machine, which pumps and oxygenates the blood while the patient's heart is temporarily stopped.
These devices are crucial in ensuring the safety and success of open-heart surgeries and other procedures that require bypassing the heart and lungs. They are widely used in hospitals and surgical centers worldwide.
Please note that this is a general description of Capillary Membrane Oxygenators, and specific features and functionalities may vary depending on the manufacturer and model.
