The Affinity CP Centrifugal Blood Pump series, developed by Medtronic Inc., represents a significant stride forward in high-precision blood flow management. These advanced medical devices serve a profound role in cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) procedures, commonly referred to as heart-lung machine usage.
Purpose and Usage
The Affinity CP Centrifugal Blood Pump is primarily used to circulate the patient's blood externally, allowing the heart and lungs to rest during surgeries. It oxygenates the blood and removes carbon dioxide, effectively replacing both the heart and lung functions temporarily.
Unique Features and Benefits
The series includes the Affinity CP Centrifugal Blood Pump with Balanced Biosurface and the Affinity CP Centrifugal Blood Pump with Cortiva BioActive Surface. These variants are designed to minimize damage to blood components, reducing the risk of complications.
The Balanced Biosurface model incorporates an advanced biocompatible surface built to protect blood elements during circulation, enhancing overall blood flow quality and patient safety.
The model with Cortiva BioActive Surface, on the other hand, is carefully designed to provide continuous and uniform biologically active surface coverage throughout the pump's life, creating a healthy interaction between the device material and blood.
The Affinity CP Centrifugal Blood Pump series by Medtronic Inc. is committed to offering patients the benefits of safer, more predictable procedures, and professionals the ease of use and performance assurance they need to provide optimal cardiac care.
The purpose-driven design and advanced materials of the Affinity CP Centrifugal Blood Pump represent a significant progression in the realm of heart implants.
How it WorksThe Affinity CP Centrifugal Blood Pump operates using centrifugal force. When blood enters the inflow of the pump unit through the rotational inertia of the pump impeller, it exerts an outward force that circulates the blood within the pump head. After circulating, the blood leaves the pump through the outflow.
Key to this pump's efficacy are its specialized surfaces. Designed with either the Balance Biosurface or the Cortiva BioActive Surface, each provides unique benefits to the patient:
Incorporating these bio-surfaces into the production process of the pump unit contributes to a reduction in blood contact with artificial surfaces, potentially reducing activation of inflammatory and coagulation pathways.
The Affinity CP Centrifugal Blood Pump will significantly enhance the level of patient care your practice can provide. It offers durable and biocompatible options for heart implant procedures while potentially reducing the risks of blood-mediated reactions and thrombotic events.
Product Performance and SafetyConsistently high performance and safety characteristics mark the distinctive features that set the Affinity CP Centrifugal Blood Pump apart in its category. It provides a reliable blood flow while minimizing trauma to the blood components, reinforcing its place as an essential tool in managing advanced heart disease.
Note: Always ensure this device is operated by an experienced and appropriately trained healthcare professional, under the standard guidelines and instructions outlined by the manufacturer.
