Evaluating the Safety and Performance of the MiniLung Petite Kit in Neonatal and Pediatric Patients With Acute Respiratory and Cardiac Failure

Summary

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.

Eligibility
