A centrifugal pump for cardiopulmonary bypass systems circulates blood outside the body using rotational force, enabling oxygenation and reinfusion during open-heart procedures. These devices replace the heart’s pumping function temporarily, maintaining circulation while the patient’s heart is stopped for surgery.
These pumps are single-use devices, typically regulated as part of extracorporeal circulation systems. They require pairing with a separate drive unit and are supplied sterile, ready for immediate clinical use in controlled surgical environments.
