In 2015, our colleagues had the opportunity to travel to Kenya. What they witnessed there left an unforgettable mark. During a visit to a local
Oxygenator System
The venous blood with low oxygen content is oxygenated into arterial blood with high oxygen content to meet the needs of the patient during surgery.
WG2500A
Oxygenator System
Extracorporeal circulation is a life support technology that uses pipes to connect oxygenators and other consumables and equipment to drain venous blood outside the body, perform gas exchange, adjust temperature and filter artificially, and then inject it back into the arterial system of the body.
WEGO oxygenator is an artificial organ that can exchange blood and gas. It integrates the functions of oxygenation, temperature change, blood storage, filtration, and blood recovery. Its main function is to oxygenate venous blood with low oxygen content. Becomes arterial blood with high oxygen content to meet the needs of the patient during surgery. 2021: Through comparison and application with imported products in total thoracic minimally invasive cardiac surgery, Weigao membrane oxygenator has no significant difference from imported products in terms of VAVD use, oxygenation performance, carbon dioxide removal and blood compatibility.
It uses hollow fibers with micropores as the medium for gas and blood exchange. The hollow fibers carry blood outside and gas inside. Gas and blood exchange O2 and CO2 through diffusion on both sides of the hollow fiber membrane wall, avoiding the direct contact between blood and gas. contact, reducing the denaturation of serum proteins.
Thermostat: It adopts PET capillary tube. When the product is used, blood flows outside the capillary tube and water flows inside. The temperature of the water is adjusted through an external variable temperature water tank, thereby achieving blood temperature control.

1. What is an oxygenator used for?
An oxygenator serves as an artificial lung, temporarily taking over the function of the natural lungs by oxygenating the blood and removing carbon dioxide during medical procedures or long-term life support.
2. What is the difference between an oxygen concentrator and an oxygenator?
An oxygen generator separates and stores oxygen from the air, whereas an oxygen concentrator works by removing nitrogen from the air, thus concentrating the remaining oxygen for delivery.
3. How long can a patient be on an oxygenator?
The duration of oxygenator support is tailored to the patient’s clinical needs. It may be used temporarily for acute recovery or as a long-term solution for chronic conditions, with the treatment timeline determined solely by the healthcare team.
4. What are the different types of oxygenators?
The two primary types of oxygenators are bubble and membrane oxygenators, with the latter being the current clinical standard. Bubble oxygenators, which directly infuse gas into the blood, risk causing hemolysis and microemboli, restricting their use to brief procedures. In contrast, membrane oxygenators employ a gas-permeable barrier that separates blood from gas, significantly reducing blood trauma and enabling safe application in both short-term surgery and prolonged life support.
5. What are the risks of using an oxygenator?
The use of an oxygenator carries certain risks, which are categorized as follows: fire or explosion hazard due to the combustion-supporting nature of oxygen; clinical complications such as oxygen toxicity, which may manifest as headaches, dizziness, or confusion; and local adverse effects like nasal or throat dryness and irritation.
