Abstract

A new type of direct‐contact oxygenator has been tested satisfactorily on dogs in nine experiments. It is based on the principle of the “packed column“ and has the advantage of a small hold‐up (meaning a small priming volume), no formation of foam, and gentle flowing of the blood. The apparatus is simple enough to be commercially available at a low price and discarded after use. Both PO₂ increase and PCO₂ decrease were satisfactory and plasma hemoglobin values remained low after 75 minutes of perfusion. Preliminary in vitro experiments on ox and human blood showed a low degree of blood damage.
