Study of a heart-lung device for emergency life support
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Heart & circulation, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial looks at using a specific heart-lung support machine (the EUROSETS ECMOLIFE system) for adults who need urgent “extra” circulation support. It may help clinicians understand how well the device works in serious situations like shock, cardiac arrest, or after heart surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- Doctors plan to use the EUROSETS ECMOLIFE system as VA-ECLS (an emergency heart-lung support method)
- Your situation fits one of these uses: cardiogenic shock, low output after heart surgery, cardiac arrest, eCPR, or high-risk heart procedure
- You are not pregnant
- You are not breastfeeding

This study looks at using an external life-support machine after heart surgery. It may help patients who need temporary extra support while the heart and body recover.
This study looks at how to best relieve pressure on the heart while a heart-lung machine is helping to pump blood. It includes anyone who needs this support.
This study examines how blood clotting cells (platelets) behave when patients are on a heart-lung support machine called ECMO. Researchers will take small blood samples to understand if the machine affects platelet function and how to manage blood thinning medication safely.
This trial is testing a new device (MiniLung Petite Kit) for babies and young children with severe lung or heart failure. The device helps oxygenate the blood and remove carbon dioxide, giving the lungs and heart a chance to rest and heal.
This study watches how your body responds to fluids while on VA ECMO (a heart-lung machine). The goal is to improve care for people needing this support.
This trial tests a better way to get a mobile team that can start ECMO (a heart-lung machine) to people who have a sudden cardiac arrest outside the hospital. The goal is to see if this approach can help save more lives in certain regions.
