Abstract

L'invention concerne un poumon artificiel qui est pourvu d'un faisceau de membranes à fibres creuses (12) chargées dans une partie d'échange de gaz (3) et un filtre (15) chargé dans un espace de filtre (14) adjacent à la partie d'échange de gaz, un canal sanguin (4) étant formé de manière qu'il passe transversalement dans le faisceau de membranes à fibres creuses et le filtre. Au niveau de la partie terminale supérieure du canal sanguin, un orifice d'échappement (16) pour permettre la communication de l'espace de filtre avec l'espace extérieur est placé. Le filtre est formé d'un matériau filtrant de type feuille (17) comprenant une pluralité de plis parallèles (18) orientés dans le sens vertical du canal sanguin. L'espace de filtre est divisé en un espace côté primaire (14a) et un espace côté secondaire (14b) par le matériau filtrant de type feuille. L'orifice d'échappement est placé au niveau de la partie terminale supérieure du canal sanguin et comprend des passages d'échappement (21a, 21b) par lesquels les gaz d'échappement déchargé par les espaces côté primaire et côté secondaire sortent séparément les uns des autres.
