Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of blood oxygenation devices, in particular to a blood oxygenation device dedicated to an extracorporeal cardiopulmonary auxiliary support system. Background Art

[0002] In some high-risk surgeries such as percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), an extracorporeal cardiopulmonary support system is essential to maintain the patient's vital signs and organ function. Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary support systems replace damaged cardiopulmonary systems by providing artificial oxygenated blood and maintaining blood circulation. They are divided into heart assist devices and artificial ventilators, which can temporarily replace cardiopulmonary function, reduce surgical risks, prolong surgical time, and enable surgeons to perform surgery in a more stable condition, significantly improving the success rate of surgery.

[0003] The blood oxygenation system is the core component of the extracorporeal cardiopulmonary support system, which significantly affects the overall application efficiency and safety of the equipment. However, there are many problems with existing blood oxygenation devices: (1) The high cost limits the popularity of these blood oxygenation devices, especially in medical environments with limited resources. (2) The use of existing oxygenation devices has a high risk of coagulation, which not only increases the probability of bleeding in patients, but also requires medical staff to perform strict anticoagulation management, further increasing the complexity and risk of treatment. (3) The use time of existing blood oxygenation devices is limited. They can only provide cardiopulmonary function support in the short term, which limits their scope of application in treating longer-term cardiopulmonary diseases.

[0004] In response to the above technical problems, the utility model provides a blood oxygenation device dedicated to the extracorporeal cardiopulmonary support system, which uses the second-generation fiber hollow membrane and optimizes the production process to significantly reduce the cost of the equipment, making it more economical and affordable, thereby improving its popularity in resource-limited environments. Secondly, we use an anticoagulant coating to effectively reduce the risk of coagulation and reduce the patient's bleeding probability, while simplifying anticoagulation management, resulting in a new generation of blood oxygen devices that are both economical and safe for long-term use.
