Patent ID: 8888730

Claim:
An integrated perfusion system comprising: a heart lung machine including a plurality of pump modules, each pump module having a control unit; a controller in communication with each of the control units; an input device in communication with the controller and configured to accept operational settings information from a user; and an output device in communication with the controller and configured to display operational parameters of the plurality of pump modules; a data management system in communication with the controller, the data management system including: an RF sensor; and a processor in communication with the RF sensor; wherein the data management system is configured to compute and display metabolic parameters; and one or more disposable elements comprising at least one oxygenator configured to be used in conjunction with the heart lung machine and each disposable element including an RFID tag programmed with identifying information about the disposable element that can be read by the RF sensor and used by the processor to unlock an algorithm in the data management system if appropriate disposable elements are identified; wherein the data management system is configured such that upon receipt of the identifying information from the one or more disposable elements, the processor uses the algorithm and computes and displays the metabolic parameters.
