A new type of capillary membrane oxygenator is designed.
This oxygenator has triple lumen: inner sleeve consists of a thin silastic tube contained bundle of 120-140 silastic capillaries, and is sealed inside an outer cylindrical acryl or silastic housing. Inner tube has a side arm for blood inlet and outlet at the near of each end. Venous blood was flown into the inlet of inner tube, oxygenated between the capillary bundle and exits through outlet of inner tube. Outer cylindrical housing is added several devices, those which can be connected with pulse generator for air pulsation or water pulsation to blood.
This report describes the triple lumen-capillary membrane oxygenator used in animal experiments. Data on gas transfer and performance of this oxygenator with or without air and water pulsation are presented.
