Research Abstract

Artificial lung which assists breathing without using a pump system when it became functional disorder has attracted attention. A system was constructed to take data that showed some performances into PC in order to clarify indexes for management of a iLA (interventional Lung Assist) made by Novalung GmbH. Pig was attached iLA and measured various data such as change of blood carbondioxide partial pressure, the oxygen partial pressure and inflow blood volume of a iLA. We confirmed that measurement of the inflow blood volume and the blood carbondioxide partial pressure was effective under the present conditions for the management of reasonable iLA.
