  • Title: [Use of lande-edwards membrane oxygenators as artificial lungs].
    Author: Vanderhoeft P, Derks C, de Francquen P, Sarezky M, Simpson R.
    Journal: Acta Chir Belg; 1975 Jan; 74(1):82-5. PubMed ID: 1114875.
    Abstract:
    Lande-Edwards membrane oxygenators were tested as artificial lungs in 6 dogs: the right heart directly perfused the oxygenators during an apneusis of one hour. During such a pulmonary by-pass right ventricular pressure doubles compared to initial value, with a moderate decrease in cardiac output; mean PO-2 rises from 40 to 67 mm Hg and PCO-2 decreases from 54 to 49 mm Hg through the oxygenator.
