## Indications for use
The Quart Arterial Filter with Safeline Coating is designed for use in an extracorporeal circulation system during surgical procedures involving a cardiopulmonary bypass. Within the cited flowrates, the arterial filter removes particulate and gaseous micro-embolisms from the extracorporeal circulation system. The eliminated gas can be removed via the purge line. The decision regarding the method in which the arterial filter is to be employed rests solely with the treating physician. The unit may not be continuously employed for more than 6 hours. We do not recommend longer contact with the blood.
