MYOtherm XP

Overview

Cardioplegia plays a critical role keeping the heart protected and arrested during cardiopulmonary bypass by maintaining a desired ratio of blood and cardioplegic solution at a prescribed temperature.

The Medtronic MYOtherm XP^® Cardioplegia Delivery System was specifically designed to effectively handle air, in a low-prime design, while providing fast responses through efficient heat transfer.

The MYOtherm XP System has advantages that set it apart from other cardioplegia products.

• Unique design of the blood inlet port promotes even blood flow over the stainless-steel bellows for single-pass heat exchange
• Heat Exchanger diverter wall traps air as it directs the flow of blood from the bellows to the top of the outlet chamber
• “Bottom-in, Bottom-out” design provides fast response times over a range of flow rates
• Temperature-monitoring site (TMA) in middle of the blood outlet for accurate temperature monitoring
• 150-micron filter captures any air emboli and particulates as blood exits the outlet chamber
• Pressure relief valve protects the heat exchanger from over-pressurization
• Available in Medtronic's custom tubing packs
