Description
Family of Hollow Fiber Oxygenators
A 32 µm screen filter surrounds the fiber layer of the oxygenator. Particulate
micro-emboli that may be present in the blood are trapped in the filter mesh
while gaseous emboli remain inside the oxygenator and in contact with the
hollow fibers. Driven by the pressure difference, gaseous emboli enter the
inner lumen of the microporous hollow fiber and are eliminated via the gas
outlet.
Characteristics
-Integrated arterial filter with self-venting technology
-Lower priming volume, high gas exchange and low pressure drop are optimally balanced for superb performance
-Hollow fibers manufactured exclusively by Terumo using a patented technology means total quality management from raw materials to finished product
-Superior O2 transfer performance
