Descriptor máquina corazón-pulmón
Scope note: Aparato que suministra soporte circulatorio mecánico durante la cirugía a corazón abierto, eludiendo el corazón para facilitar la cirugía sobre el mismo. La función básica de la máquina es oxigenar el suministro venoso sanguíneo del cuerpo y posteriormente bombearlo de nuevo en el sistema arterial. La máquina aporta también succión intracardíaca, filtración, y control de temperatura. Algunos de los más importantes componentes de estas máquinas son bombas, oxigenadores, reguladores de la temperatura, y filtros. (UMDNS, 1999)

Scope note: Apparatus that provides mechanical circulatory support during open-heart surgery, by passing the heart to facilitate surgery on the organ. The basic function of the machine is to oxygenate the body's venous supply of blood and then pump it back into the arterial system. The machine also provides intracardiac suction, filtration, and temperature control. Some of the more important components of these machines include pumps, oxygenators, temperature regulators, and filters. (UMDNS, 1999)
