SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR EX VIVO LUNG CARE

摘要

A lung chamber assembly (2204) comprising a housing (2802) having a bottom including at east one housing drain, and walls; a support surface (2810) for suppoing a tung the support surface (2810) defining a drain (2814) and drainage channel (2812lading to the drain (2814) for draining a perfusion fluid(250) exiting the lun; an openable lid (2810) that provides a sealatde connection to the walls of the housing; a first perusion interface for allowing a flow of the perfusion fluid into the lung; a ventilation interface that alows ventiation of the ung by a ventilator; and a second perfusion interface for allowing a flotw of the perfusion fluid away fror the lung:berein the first perfusion interface includes at least one connector portion (805)and at last one insertion tube (804) attached to a distal end of the connector portion (805) and disposed at an angle relatve to the connection portion (808,and wherein the inserion tube (804) is made of a bio inert material having a hardness between about 50 Shore A and 90 Shore A for suturing the insertion tube to a pulmonary artery, 2Q/Oan S
