ABSTRACT:
The Blood Pump Tube Element will prevent the destruction of blood cells during a prolonged pumping of blood. The device comprises a series of interconnected bag-like chambers within a tube. The chambers fully contain fluid (blood) and each is provided with inlet and outlet valve means. The tube is engaged by a plurality of rollers mounted on rotating arms, thereby giving a peristaltic pumping action to the fluid in the bag-like chambers. Additionally, the position of the rollers on the arms may be adjusted.
