Biomedical Engineering Aims and scope

Conclusions

1. Injection of perfluorodecalin dispersed with oxygen into a gas-containing compartment of porous membrane (e.g., made of teflon) oxygenators modifies the membrane oxygenators, allowing practical application of liquid blood oxygenators safeguarded against penetration of gas-carrying liquid into blood.

2. Application of liquid oxygenators ensure minimum traumatization and effective extrapulmonary oxygenation of blood under artificial circulation. Therefore, clinical application of the proposed gas-exchange membrane technique is rather topical and promising.
