Overview
This prospective observational study will evaluate the safety and performance of the MiniLung petite kit in neonatal and pediatric patients with acute respiratory and cardiac failure. The main question it aims to answer is (study hypotheses): Veno-venous (VV) and veno-arterial (VA) Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) using the MiniLung petite kit is safe and improves gas exchange (oxygenation and CO2 removal) and hemodynamic stabilization in neonatal and pediatric patients with severe acute respiratory and/or cardiopulmonary failure within 24 hours compared to the treatment before VV or VA ECMO initiation and maintain a life-sustaining condition.
Interventions
- Device MiniLung petite kit combined with the Xenios console
Veno-venous (VV) and veno-arterial (VA) Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) treatment will be performed using the MiniLung petite kit combined with the Xenios console according to their intended use and local standards/requirements.
Primary outcome measures
- Oxygenation Index [Time frame: Baseline and during the intervention every 24 hours until a maximum of 29 days]
Secondary outcome measures (3)
- Hemodynamic stabilization [Time frame: Baseline and during the intervention every 24 hours until a maximum of 29 days]
- Facilitate lung-protective ventilation in patients additionally receiving invasive mechanical ventilation [Time frame: Baseline and during the intervention every 24 hours until a maximum of 29 days]
- Assessment of the frequency of complications [Time frame: Baseline and during the intervention every 24 hours until a maximum of 29 days]
Eligibility criteria
Inclusion criteria
- Informed consent signed and dated by parents or legal representative and investigator/authorized physician
- Patients ≥2- ≤8 kg bodyweight to be treated with the MiniLung petite kit
- Acute severe respiratory and/or cardiopulmonary failure with an ECMO indication
Exclusion criteria
- Participation in an interventional clinical study during the preceding 30 days that could interfere with the ECLS therapy
- Previous participation in the same study
- Prematurity (<34 weeks gestational age)
