What is the correct function of pump in heart-lung machine?

The heart-lung machine intercepts the blood at the right atrium (upper heart chamber) before it passes into the heart. Using a pump, the machine delivers the blood to a reservoir, which adds oxygen to the blood. The pump then sends the oxygen-rich blood to the aorta and through the rest of the body.

How many pumps does a heart-lung machine have?

How does the cardiopulmonary bypass machine work?

The cardiopulmonary bypass pump does the work of the heart, pumping blood through the body, and making sure that the tissues of the body get the oxygen they need. 2 The machine also adds oxygen to the blood while taking over the pumping action of the heart, replacing the function of the lungs.
