Product description

Quadrox-iD Adult Diffusion Membrane Oxygenator Product Usage: The Quadrox-iD Adult Diffusion Membrane Oxygenator is intended for use in an extracorporeal circulation during cardiopulmonary bypass in cardiac surgery. Within the specified flow rate range, the device oxygenates the blood, removes carbon dioxide from the blood and regulates the blood temperature. The oxygenator with diffusion membrane cannot be used for the administration of volatile anesthetic gases because the gas molecules are unable to pass through the diffusion membrane. Responsibility for deciding whether to use an oxygenator rests solely with the attending physician.
