A cardiotomy reservoir is a medical device designed to collect, store, and filter blood during cardiopulmonary bypass procedures, typically in cardiac surgeries. It serves as a temporary holding container that helps remove micro-particles and air bubbles from the blood while maintaining a reserve supply.
These devices are typically supplied as single-use items and are integrated into extracorporeal circuits without additional functional components like oxygenators. They come in various forms including hardshell or soft, bag-like containers with specialized connectors for trapping contaminants.
