Explore: Membrane Oxygenators

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a form of extracorporeal life support, providing prolonged cardiac and respiratory support to people whose

A membrane oxygenator is a device used to add oxygen to, and remove carbon dioxide from the blood. It can be used in two principal modes: to imitate the

problem worsens as complement proteins build on the membrane oxygenators. For this reason, most oxygenators come with a manufacturer's recommendation that

Membrane technology encompasses the scientific processes used in the construction and application of membranes. Membranes are used to facilitate the transport
