ABSTRACT:
An integrated, artificial heart-lung machine and method for performing extracorporeal blood oxygenation and circulation. The heart-lung machine is a single unit in which a cylindrical artificial lung, preferably with a heat exchanger, is connected in series to an undulation pump and a removable drive unit. The undulation pump is directly connected to the oxygenator which significantly reduces the blood priming volume of the system.
