Systems and Methods for Treating Blood

A system for hyperthermia treatment, comprising:

• one or more pumps configured to pump blood in a fluid flow path at a collective rate between 4 and 7 liters per minute;
• one or more heat exchangers coupled to the fluid flow path and operable to heat at least a portion of the blood to a temperature of between 42 and 45 degrees Celsius and operable to allow the blood to cool one or more degrees, following the heating of the blood to a temperature of between 42 and 45 degrees Celsius;
• one or more oxygenators coupled to the fluid flow path, the one or more oxygenators configured to remove carbon dioxide from at least a portion of the blood.

• one or more heat exchangers coupled to the fluid flow path and operable to heat at least a portion of the blood to a temperature of between 42 and 43.9 degrees Celsius and operable to allow the blood to cool one or more degrees, following the heating of the blood to a temperature of between 42 and 43.9 degrees Celsius;
• one or more venting modules coupled to the fluid flow path, the one or more venting modules configured to remove carbon dioxide from at least a portion of the blood.
