ABSTRACT:
Extracorporeal blood pumping apparatus for use, for example in cardiopulmonary bypass procedures, left ventricle assist, hemodialysis and the like. The pulsatile pump apparatus may comprise an elongated driver balloon and a similar blood pumping balloon positioned side by side in a rigid casing or housing having preferably a one-way air valve. The inlet and/or outlets of both balloons are off-set and sloping ballon end portions are provided, inter alia, to minimize folding and/or rubbing during use. The driver balloon is provided with a port for coupling to a pressure-vacuum source and the blood pumping balloon is provided with an inlet port and an outlet port and both balloons are of such a cross sectional size and construction as to provide non-occlusive action by the blood pumping balloon. The one-way valve in the housing permits the reduction of deflation time of the driver balloon when it is coupled to a vacuum source, the provision of counterpulsation, prevents the introduction of gas into the blood stream in the event of a failure of the blood pumping balloon and prevents actuation of the blood pumping balloon in the event of failure of the driver balloon.
