Abstract
Device for extracorporeal circulation (E.C.C.) circuit, includes tubes known as lines which are intended to be used during a surgical operation requiring the extracorporeal oxygenation of the blood. In this device, are provided an arterial line and a venous line whose linkage with each other and in a closed circuit to the heart-lung machine forms the arteriovenous shunt, the linkage of the distal ends of the arterial line (1) and the venous line (2) is accomplished through at least one arterial cannula (3) connected detachably at its distal end to the venous line (2).
