The world’s leading
ECLS System
Your choice for
heart-lung support
With critically ill or injured patients, there’s no
time for delay. That’s why Getinge has long been
committed to advancing ECLS technology.le
As one of the world’s leading manufacturers of heart-lung machines and related components, we understand the impact that a portable extracorporeal life support (ECLS) system can have on patient outcomes.
A broad range of indications
The Cardiohelp System is a small and
lightweight heart-lung support system.
Although extracorporeal life support
provided by the Cardiohelp System is not
a therapy itself, it acts as a bridge for
recovery or transplantation. This gives
caregivers more time to optimize the
patient’s therapy while easing the body’s
workload.
It can be used for a wide range of indications in intensive care, emergency
medicine, cardiology, and cardiac surgery.
We put patients first
For more than a century, Getinge and its
well-known brands – such as Maquet –
have put patients first. It’s why we remain
committed to close clinical relationships
that identify real-world healthcare challenges, and address them with costeffective, clinically relevant solutions.
Gentle extracorporeal circulation Giving the organs time to heal
A multi-functional system
The Cardiohelp System is a compact heart-lung support
system suitable for all indications requiring extracorporeal
circulation for cardiopulmonary support. It can be used for
up to 30 days in cases of myocardial or respiratory failure.
Highly portable, the Cardiohelp System can be rapidly
deployed for transport of patients requiring respiratory
and / or circulatory support.
HLS Set Advanced
Combining a low damage blood pump with a highly efficient gas module
When a patient’s heart or lungs are failing, they need safe and effective cardiopulmonary support to avoid hypoxic injury
The right technology can ease the body’s workload, providing support both at the bedside and during transport.
Improved safety for critically ill patients
The HLS Set Advanced, with the HLS Module Advanced
as its core component, is a state-of-the-art oxygenator
providing circulatory and / or respiratory extracorporeal life
support (ECLS). It expands therapy applications with a
continuous use for veno-venous or veno-arterial extracorporeal support up to 30 days*.
Integrated monitoring technology helps to improve
patient safety and handling of the device in a high risk
setup.
The core of the HLS Set Advanced, the HLS Module Advanced
The core is an integrated low-trauma centrifugal pump.
With the HLS Set Advanced, patient safety is integrated
into the system. Multiple sensors measures important
blood parameters, including:
Integrated sensors provide continuous measurement:
Flow Bubble Sensor (FBS) for bubble detection and for
reducing the risk of embolisms.
The HLS Set Advanced is available in different versions:
HLS Set Advanced 5.0 accommodates a blood flow of up
to 5 l/min and HLS Set Advanced 7.0 accommodates a
blood flow of up to 7 l/min. Both HLS Set Advanced have a
biocompatible Bioline Coating.
For patients who are susceptible to heparin-induced
thrombocytopenia a set with Softline Coating is available,
the HIT Set Advanced 5.0 and HIT Set Advanced 7.0.
HLS Set Advanced Benefits at a glance
Safety
• Integrated noninvasive sensor technology minimizes the hazards of air
embolism, stagnant zones, clotting
and cavitation from external pressure
sensors. There are no pressure lines
that need flushing.
• Rapidly detect cannulae misplacement and kinking by monitoring
pressure changes with Cardiohelp.
• Various sensors reduce the risk of embolism caused by air entering the circuit and helps to early recognize
formation of clots.
• Low priming volume minimizes
hemodilution.
• Changing a component or set always
represents a risk for the patient. The
HLS set was developed for up to 30
days continuous use.
Usability
• Quick and easy set-up and priming
for routine and rapid deployment in
emergency situations.
• The sterile packaging contains all the
necessary components and tubing.
• An integrated heat exchanger
helps to precisely manages temperature.
• Color-coded tubing supports safe
patient connection.
• Provided as a standard set it allows
for consistent trainings of users,
familiarity with the product in any
situation and routine handling.
• With Cardiohelp and HLS Set
Advanced, patients can be safely
transported between hospitals.
Cardiac Intervention Set Benefits at a glance
• First standardized tubing set for ECLS
during high-risk PCI
• Designed to be used for up to 6 hours
this set can serve as a back-up
solution to cover the phase of highest
risk of instability and take over full
support if necessary
• Quick and easy set-up and priming
for fast deployment in emergency
situations
• Low priming volume minimizes
hemodilution
• Connection of external pressure
measurement and arterial temperature is possible
• Integrated centrifugal pump and heat
exchanger for precise temperature
management
Advantages
• A broad range of sizes for all patient types: neonatal,
pediatric or adult
• Radiopaque to assist in catheter insertion and
placement
• Constructed with an unique material that combines
the durability of polyurethane with the flexibility and
biocompatibility of silicone
Characteristics:
• Wire-reinforced catheter with a one-piece, dual lumen
construction.
• The Catheter consists of two separate lumina, this
allows for both venous drainage and reinfusion of
blood during extracorporeal life support procedures.
• The product is offered in a range of sizes to address
varying patient size requirements.
