ABSTRACT:
The hollow fiber membrane type ariticial lung has an inner cylinder, an outer cylinder, a hollow fiber bundle formed by collecting porous hollow fiber membrane and a supporting member for liquid-hermetically supporting the outer surface of the inner cylinder, the inner surface of the outer cylinder and the outer surface of the hollow fiber membrane at the two ends of the inner cylinder, the outer cylinder and the hollow fiber bundle in such a manner that the hollow fiber membrane is opened. The arificial lung reveals a reduced pressure loss and is capable of preventing blood channeling, and exhibit an excellent gas exchanging efficiency.
