Description:
Designed and produced by Medtronic Inc., an unquestionable leader in the world of medical device technologies, the AFFINITY CP Centrifugal Pump Resting Heart Sys.Myotherm Cardioplegia Deliv.Affinity Hollow Fiber OxygenatorAAF (hereinafter referred to as the Affinity CP System) is an advanced cardiovascular device that provides a comprehensive system for providing circulatory support during cardiac surgery. The Affinity CP System is engineered to support and maintain the patient’s cardiovascular function while the heart itself is at rest.
At the heart of this device is a centrifugal pump that is meticulously designed to circulate blood. It eliminates the need for natural heart contractions during surgery by continuously and efficiently circulating the patient's blood. This process involves a suspension of typical cardiac functions, allowing surgeons to perform precise, intricate procedures on the heart while it is completely still.
Another notable feature of the Affinity CP System is its impressive Myotherm Cardioplegia delivery component. This innovative technology helps to slow down or stop the heart by introducing a solution that reduces and protects cardiac tissues from any potential damage during surgery. The Myotherm Cardioplegia ensures a secure, resting phase for the heart and it effectively prevents cardiac damage caused by ischemia.
The Affinity Hollow Fiber Oxygenator, an integral part of the Affinity CP System, plays an indispensable role in blood oxygenation during cardiac surgery. This oxygenator works by removing carbon dioxide from the blood and simultaneously infusing it with oxygen, essentially replicating the function of respiratory organs. This process ensures the patient's blood is adequately oxygenated throughout the procedure, effectively keeping organs and tissues healthy during the surgery.
In sum, the Affinity CP System by Medtronic Inc. provides a comprehensive, quality-assured platform to support intraoperative cardiovascular function. It combines advanced technologies in circulatory pump systems, cardioplegia delivery, and blood oxygenation in a high-performing package that is engineered to aid in complex cardiac surgeries. The Affinity CP System underscores Medtronic Inc.'s commitment to providing innovative, state-of-the-art medical devices to advance cardiac surgery techniques and improve ... Read more
