Shaping the Future
of ECMO Therapy

Global ECMO Experience

Â鶹Éçmadou Medical Care is dedicated to advancing healthcare by providing leading-edge and dependable products to critically ill patients in hospitals worldwide. With a legacy spanning decades, our company has been at the forefront of delivering innovative solutions. Since 2016, Â鶹Éçmadou Medical Care has expanded its mission to include extracorporeal membrane support for patients experiencing acute cardiopulmonary and respiratory failure.

The Novalung® System, an extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) device, has emerged as a trusted device for healthcare professionals, including cardiothoracic surgeons, interventional cardiologists, intensivists, emergency medicine physicians, perfusionists, and bedside caregivers such as intensive care unit registered nurses (ICU RNs) and respiratory therapists (RCTs). This simple yet sophisticated system facilitates safe delivery of veno-arterial ECMO (VA ECMO), veno-venous ECMO (VV ECMO), and ECMO-assisted cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) as well as support, including experienced ECMO clinical educators.

This unwavering commitment to advancing heart and lung therapy underscores Â鶹Éçmadou Medical Care's global mission — to support extracorporeal cardiopulmonary treatments such as CO2 removal and oxygenation.

ECMO is used for cardiac or respiratory failure where conventional management, including cardiopulmonary resuscitation, is not successful. ECMO is a circuit comprised of a draining cannula that drains blood from the body for circulation in the machine and returns to the body through a returning cannula. Traditionally, VA and VV ECMO are used. During this circulation of blood, anticoagulation monitoring is essential to maintain the balanceÌýbetween clotting and bleeding.1

INDICATIONS FOR USE

The Novalung System is indicated for long-term (>6 hours) respiratory/cardiopulmonary support that provides assisted extracorporeal circulation and physiologic gas exchange (oxygenation and CO2 removal) of the patient's blood in adults with acute respiratory failure or acute cardiopulmonary failure, where other available treatment options have failed, and continued clinical deterioration is expected or the risk of death is imminent. These may include:

  • Failure to wean from cardiopulmonary bypass following cardiac surgery in adult patients
  • ECMO-assisted cardiopulmonary resuscitation in adults


Caution: Federal (US) law restricts these devices to sale by or on the order of a physician.

Note: Read the Instructions for Use for safe and proper use of these devices. The Indications for Use for this device can be found at https://fmcna.com/products/indications-safety-and-warnings.
