Abstract
The final medical treatment of respiratory disease, such as COPD, is a lung transplant. However, it has stood by the transplant in many cases for a long time because of donor failure. Therefore, the demand of respiratory support and an artificial implantable lung bridge to lung transplant is increasing. However, when an affection of the lungs is caused, assistance of the heartbeat is essential. Because a cardiac disease is supervene with in many cases. Then, we devised integrated the oxygenater and the blood pump with right ventricle assist. The blood pump used Cross Flow Pump. The Cross Flow Pump can obtain a wide outflow and uniform flow to oxygenator that was able to have high gas exchange ability, an anti-thrombus and small space. In this paper, we describe the trial manufacture and performance evaluation test of integrated the oxygenator and blood pump.
