Abstract
A novel method of oxygenating the tissue of a living mammal is disclosed comprising the steps of providing an oxygenated fluorocarbon-containing liquid; injecting that oxygenated liquid into the peritoneal cavity of said mammal; and withdrawing said fluorocarbon liquid from said cavity, said injecting and withdrawing be conducted at a rate sufficient to oxygenate said tissue. Accordingly, a novel 'artificial lung' is disclosed which is useful to selectively oxygenate the body of a mammal, as reflected by increased arterial blood gas (pO.sub.2) in said mammal.
