## Indications for use
The MONOLYTH C Hollow Fiber Membrane Lung with Integrated Softshell Venous Reservoir is intended for use in adults who undergo cardiopulmonary bypass surgery requiring extracorporeal circulation. The device provides oxygenation and removal of carbon dioxide from venous or suctioned blood. The integral heat exchanger provides blood temperature control, allows for the use of hypothermia, or aids in the maintenance of normothermia during surgery. The integral softshell venous reservoir is intended for use as a storage reservoir for blood. The device is indicated for use with blood flows of 1.0 to 8.0 liters per minute (LPM). The MONOLYTH C 600 and the MONOLYTH C 1200 have been tested for 6 hours of continuous use. Use longer than 6 hours is not advised.
