An artificial lung having first and second oxygen blowing stages formed therein. The device comprises an outermost blood reservoir tube having top and bottom walls formed thereon, a plurality of oxygenation tubes disposed coaxially with the blood reservoir tube defining passages for blood therebetween, a first oxygen blowing stage formed under the oxygenation tubes for blowing oxygen gas into the blood introduced through an inlet for blood and a second or auxiliary oxygen blowing stage formed around the first oxygen blowing stage.

An artificial lung comprising: a blood reservoir tube having top and bottom walls formed thereon; a first impervious oxygenation tube disposed coaxially with said blood reservoir tube within the same, said first oxygenation tube terminating adjacent to but spaced from the top wall; a second impervious oxygenation tube disposed coaxially with said blood reservoir tube between said first oxygenation tube and said blood reservoir tube defining a first annular space, said second oxygenation tube being fixedly secured to the top wall and terminating adjacent to but spaced from the bottom wall; a third impervious oxygenation tube disposed coaxially with said blood reservoir tube between said second oxygenation tube and said blood reservoir tube defining second and third annular spaces, said third oxygenation tube being fixedly secured to the bottom wall and terminating adjacent to but spaced from the top wall; an innermost wall structure defining a first oxygen chamber therein open to and disposed under said first oxygenation tube; an intermediate wall structure connected to the lower end of said first oxygenation tube; an outer wall structure fixedly secured to the bottom wall of said blood reservoir tube, said intermediate wall structure and said outer wall structure defining a second oxygen chamber therebetween open to and disposed below said third oxygenation tube; a blood inlet connected to the inside of said first oxygenation tube; a blood outlet connected to the annular space between said third oxygenation tube and said blood reservoir tube; and an oxygen gas inlet connected to the first and the second oxygen chambers whereby oxygen is blown into blood through the first and the second oxygen chambers while blood is passing through the annular spaces between said oxygenation tubes.
