Overview
AI-generated summary, 1 Oct 2026
The Ultrox True Membrane Oxygenator is a Cardiopulmonary Bypass Oxygenator, classified as a Class II medical device. It is designed to facilitate gas exchange during extracorporeal circulation, providing oxygenation and carbon dioxide removal for patients undergoing cardiac or vascular procedures. The device employs a membrane-based oxygenator technology to efficiently transfer oxygen into and remove carbon dioxide from the patient’s blood, ensuring safe and effective perfusion support during surgery.
This device is intended for single-use in controlled clinical settings, such as operating rooms or cardiac catheterization labs, where cardiopulmonary bypass is required. Supplied sterile and packaged for one-time use, it adheres to FDA 510(k) clearance (K883054) under the DTZ product code, regulated under 21 CFR 870.4350. The Ultrox True Membrane Oxygenator is compatible with standard cardiopulmonary bypass circuits and is not intended for MRI environments. Storage and handling follow manufacturer guidelines to maintain sterility and functionality.

Questions
AI-generated answers, 1 Oct 2026
What is the Ultrox True Membrane Oxygenator I & II used for?
The Ultrox True Membrane Oxygenator I & II is a Class II medical device designed specifically for gas exchange during extracorporeal circulation. It oxygenates blood and removes carbon dioxide during cardiac or vascular surgeries requiring cardiopulmonary bypass, ensuring safe perfusion support throughout the procedure. Its membrane-based technology enables efficient and reliable blood oxygenation in controlled clinical settings like operating rooms or cardiac catheterization labs.
How is the Ultrox True Membrane Oxygenator I & II supplied and intended for use?
The device is supplied sterile and packaged for single-use only, adhering to strict clinical standards. It is not intended for reuse or repeated use in different patients. This ensures patient safety and maintains the device’s performance and sterility. The manufacturer provides guidelines for storage and handling to preserve functionality and sterility until use in a controlled clinical environment.
Is the Ultrox True Membrane Oxygenator I & II compatible with MRI environments?
No, the Ultrox True Membrane Oxygenator I & II is explicitly not intended for use in MRI environments. Its design and materials are not optimized for magnetic resonance imaging compatibility, which could pose risks to both the device and the patient during such procedures. Always verify the clinical setting’s equipment and protocols before use.
What regulatory clearance does the Ultrox True Membrane Oxygenator I & II hold?
The device holds FDA 510(k) clearance under the product code DTZ, regulated under 21 CFR 870.4350. The clearance was granted as substantially equivalent to a predicate device, following a traditional review process by the FDA’s Cardiovascular (CV) Advisory Committee. This classification ensures it meets U.S. safety and performance standards for cardiopulmonary bypass oxygenators.
What models or variants of the Ultrox True Membrane Oxygenator I & II are available?
The Ultrox True Membrane Oxygenator is available in two distinct variants: Ultrox I and Ultrox II. While both share the same core membrane-based oxygenation technology, their specific design features (e.g., flow rates, priming volumes, or membrane surface area) may differ to accommodate varying clinical needs. Always confirm the correct model with the manufacturer or product documentation to ensure compatibility with your cardiopulmonary bypass circuit and patient requirements.
