Abstract
The article presents an in vitro study aimed at measuring the efficacy and safety of several pump control modalities combined with a volume buffer capacity (VBC) on centrifugal pump-based extracorporeal life support (ELS) stability and gaseous microemboli (GME) load during conditions of simulated hypovolemia. It concludes that flow and pressure servo control for ELS demonstrate evident deficits in preserving stable and safe ELS flow during hypovolemia.
