Maquet Cardiovascular LLC Receives 510(k) Clearance to Market the CARDIOHELP System in U.S.
"The ability to bring environmental control and life support equipment on every run for inter-hospital transport could truly enable centralized care of the most critically ill respiratory failure patients and others as ECLS applications are explored further," said Dr. Cannon.*
The CARDIOHELP System is the world's smallest portable heart-lung support system providing extracorporeal life support (ECLS) to replace or support a patient's circulation and respiration. The product is expected to be commercially available in the United States later this year.
