What is CPM Hydraulic Ports and what types of ports?

ArterialMain delivery port into the CPM. It connects to the oxygenator outflow line.
VenousThe CPM’s drainage port. It connects to a venous reservoir in the case of CPB or directly to the pump’s inlet port in ECMO circuit configurations.
CardioplegiaSecondary deliver port into the CPM. Used for Cardioplegia delivery during CPB or as a second delivery port in hybrid ECMO circuit configurations.
VentSecondary drainage port. During CPB, it can connect to the Left Ventricle Vent pump.
DrainTertiary drainage port. It is used to drain the CPM’s reservoir during the teardown process.
OverflowIt provides runoff should the CPM’s reservoir overfill.
