Hemoconcentrators

A hemoconcentrator is a fluid removal device used during cardio bypass surgery. The device is inserted into the extracorpeal circuit where it acts to control hemodilution, maintain hematocrit levels, and reduce the need for additional blood products during and after surgery. Recognized as a great asset in fluid management, hemoconcentrators lower instances of edema, organ dysfunction and protein concentration.
Using the Hemocon HPH hemoconcentrator:
  • Reduces the need for homologous blood and blood products by providing patients with their own concentrated whole blood.
  • Maintains the desired hematocrit level for oxygen transport to tissues.
  • Decreases the risk of post-operative bleeding through the retention of platelets and plasma coagulation proteins.
  • Maintains oncotic pressure by retaining plasma proteins while quickly and gently removing excess plasma water.
  • Minimizes the need for diuretic use, which may be contraindicated for some patients.
Benefits

  • Polysulfone membrane offers excellent biocompatibility
  • Proprietary fiber manufacturing process ensures consistent performance
  • No-rinse fiber for convenient set up
  • Complete model selection offers ultrafiltration rates for the full range of patients from the neonate to largest adult
  • Meets the biocompatibility requirements of ISO 10993-4 selection of tests for interactions with blood
  • Manufactured under U.S. Patent 5,762,798
Convenience and Value
  • The Hemocor HPH provides perfusionists with a convenient and lower cost method of processing hemodiluted blood.
  • The “no-rinse” hemoconcentrator can be easily inserted into the extracorporeal circuit by the perfusionist at any time during the surgical procedure.
  • Shortened circuit assembly time is accomplished with the use of the optional standard tubing sets.
  • Costs are reduced by eliminating purchases of capital equipment and blood processing kits.

heart lung machine

By
  Cardiopulmonary bypass ( CPB ) is a technique that temporarily takes over the function of the heart and lungs during surgery, maintaining the circulation of blood and the oxygen content of the patient's body. The CPB pump itself is often referred to as a heart–lung machine or "the pump". Cardiopulmonary bypass pumps are operated by perfusionists. CPB is a form of extracorporeal circulation. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation is generally used for longer-term treatment.

cardiopulmonary bypass and cardioplegia

By
Extracorporeal circulation and cardiopulmonary bypass are synonymous terms denoting a method by which the blood that usually returns directly to the heart is temporarily drained from the superior and inferior venae cavae. The blood is diverted into a reservoir, where it is oxygenated and subsequently returned to the patient’s arterial circulation. This process effectually excludes the heart from the general circulation and leaves it empty so that it can accommodate surgical intervention. Myocardial protection To provide a dry, motionless, operative area, a cross-clamp is placed across the ascending aorta above the coronary ostia and proximal to the aortic cannula, thus isolating the coronary circulation and preventing blood entering the chambers of the heart. Therefore, techniques of myocardial protection are used to preserve myocardial function and prevent cell death. Cardioplegic techniques for myocardial protection involve the delivery of cardioplegic solution t...
