Arterial Filter
Clinical Application
Arterial filters are used during cardiopulmonary bypass to remove air microbubbles and particulate matter from blood before it is returned to the patient’s arterial circulation.
They are used in cardiac surgery procedures where blood filtration is required to reduce embolic risk and support patient safety during bypass.
These devices support:
- Removal of air microbubbles
- Filtration of particulate matter
- Stable blood flow during extracorporeal circulation
- Secure integration within the arterial line
Design and Performance
ALSPL arterial filters are designed to balance filtration efficiency with controlled blood flow characteristics.
Key characteristics include:
- Defined filter media for air and particulate capture
- Low resistance to blood flow
- Secure inlet and outlet connections
- Structural integrity under bypass flow conditions
Flow path geometry and filtration structure are designed to support stable circulation during cardiac procedures.
Construction Options
Arterial filter platforms may include:
- Defined priming volumes
- Integrated purge or venting options
- Standard connector formats compatible with bypass circuits
- Defined filtration surface areas
Configuration is selected based on perfusion system requirements.
Standard Configurations
Standard arterial filter platforms are available in commonly used sizes and flow capacities aligned with cardiac surgery workflows.
Detailed specifications and configuration references are provided in the product brochure.
