Ultra performance. No compromise.™
By uniquely combining materials and technologies engineered to deliver ultra performance, the Capiox NX19 oxygenator is everything you expect in a full-size oxygenator with the benefit of the lowest prime volume available.
The Capiox NX19 Oxygenator with UltraPrime Technology is our smallest, most advanced fullsize adult* oxygenator to date. Building on Terumo’s oxygenator legacy, the Capiox NX19 Oxygenator features high gas transfer utilizing new proprietary hollow fiber, enhanced gaseous microemboli (GME) removal technology, and a highly efficient heat exchanger that delivers the standard of safety and performance that you trust from Terumo.

Primary Risks of Cardiopulmonary Bypass Surgery
Terumo’s Capiox NX19 Oxygenator design addresses these three key clinical risks.
Clinicians have long studied the causes and effects of hemodilution, systemic inflammatory response and neurologic deficit. Leading contributors to optimal patient care and reducing hospital costs:
- Lower prime volume circuits
- Less foreign surface area
- Gaseous microemboli removal
Terumo links oxygenator performance to improving clinical outcomes.
Capiox NX19 Oxygenator Gas Transfer
Proprietary Hollow Fibers Optimize Blood Flow and Gas Exchange
- More fiber in a given space allows for increased blood contact.
- The blood flow path is optimized to evenly disperse blood throughout the fibers.
- More blood-to-fiber contact results in more gas transfer than required for an oxygenator with 8 L/min flow.
- To optimize the gas transfer for an 8 L/min oxy the fiber surface area is reduced.
Result
Very low prime volume and high gas exchange oxygenator that flows up to 8 L/min.
Key Features
Proprietary Hollow Fibers
Smaller fiber and unique winding process allows for more fibers and layers in a given space, increasing blood contact. The blood flow path is optimized to evenly disperse blood throughout the fibers resulting in high gas transfer.
Polymer Heat Exchanger
Terumo’s choice of polymer material and small capillary design increases performance in warming and cooling. Clinicians can be confident in the heat exchanger’s efficiency with the benefit of low prime in a smaller device1.
1. Internal testing, data on file.
Patent-Pending Air Removal Technology
Terumo hollow fiber technology placed pre heat exchanger removes air before it enters the heat exchanger.
