SMARTCANULA

Smartcanula LLC is the leading manufacturer for advanced interfaces between the circulatory system and cardio-pulmonary bypass, the key technology for open heart surgery. As a matter of fact, remote cannulation with traditional cannula designs severely limits the blood flow and major pressure drops are common on both, the arterial and the venous side. The innovative smart cannulation principle, which is based on collapsed cannula insertion and expansion within the target vessels, allows for circ... umvention of such limitations, and full pump flow can usually be reached with gravity drainage alone. Hence, centrifugal pumps, vacuum or other artifices can be avoided. As a result the pump set-up for extracorporeal circulation can be simplified including all, hardware, software, and operator interventions.More
