Cardiopulmonary bypass/extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) drainage cannulas are rigid or semi-rigid tubes designed for surgical insertion into the right atrium or major veins. They facilitate the removal of deoxygenated blood from a patient’s circulatory system during procedures like cardiopulmonary bypass or ECMO, redirecting it for oxygenation outside the body.
These devices are typically single-use and regulated as medical instruments, with classification and supply rules varying by jurisdiction. They may include a compatible trocar blade for insertion, and their design ensures compatibility with extracorporeal circuits while minimizing trauma during placement.
