Abstract

See full text

A valveless blood conduit for pulsatile cardiopulmonary bypass pump constructed and arranged to provide a surge chamber, a pumping chamber and a reservoir portion, externally valved for use in a pre-load responsive pulsatile pump. The blood conduit precludes the necessity of employing a large volume venous reservoir in a cardiopulmonary bypass system employing a pre-load responsive pump, thus reducing a patient's blood to exposure to large air-blood interfaces and large non-endothelial surface areas.
