The transducer of the acoustophoretic seperator includes a ceramic crystal. Blood flows through the separator, and lipids are trapped and removed. L'invention concerne un système d'élimination de lipides du sang lors d'une chirurgie de pontage cardio-pulmonaire. Le système utilise un séparateur acoustophorétique présentant une force de piégeage améliorée. Le transducteur du séparateur acoustophorétique comporte un cristal céramique. Le sang s'écoule à travers le séparateur et les lipides sont piégés et éliminés.
