[Reverse valves in the drive line of occlusion pumps in "heart-lung" machines].
An analysis of hydraulic cyclograms of perfusion blood-pumps (A. A. Pisarevski et al., 1970) and characteristics of polymeric main lines in artificial blood-circulation units (A. A. Pisarevski et al., 1971) suggested that a reverse-acting valve placed at the outlet of the pressure pump will decrease regurgitation into its elastic chamber at the moment when the cycle is completed: it will increase the occlusion pump discharge during contraction, or even more, will lessen the variable pressure component behind the pump. This was confirmed by the roller-pump test with or without a valve at the pump outlet. The article presents the test method, types and functional assessment of the valves tested and the design of a newly developed petal-slotted V-shaped valve. Its comparison with other valve designs showed the best hydraulic features.
