  • SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR OXYGENATOR PERFORMANCE EVALUATION
    Publication number: 20210162110
    Abstract: Systems and methods for monitoring oxygenator performance in extracorporeal circuit systems or the like. More particularly, the disclosure relates to systems and methods including a controller programmed to determine oxygenator apparatus flow impedance as a function of an inlet pressure measurement, an outlet pressure measurement and a blood flow rate measurement. The systems and methods may include a communication device that receives signals from the controller to communicate information regarding oxygenator apparatus performance.
    Type: Application
