Popis: Arteriovenous oxygenation is reported as a method of respiratory support in dogs. Animals were put in severe respiratory distress by ventilation with a 5 per cent oxygen mixture. Oxygenation was effected by connecting a disposable oxygenator between the femoral artery and vein, and blood gases were analyzed. Five of six experimental animals survived with no apparent ill effects; all control animals (5 per cent oxygen ventilation, no oxygenator) died. This experiment represents a most severe respiratory distress which was abated by means of minimal extracorporeal support.
