What is it indicated for?

The COBE® REVOLUTION™ Centrifugal Blood Pump is intended to be used with a Stéckert

Centrifugal Pump console in cardiopulmonary bypass procedures for periods of up to six hours.

The pump has not been qualified through in vitro, in vivo, or clinical studies for long term use (i.e.,

longer than six hours) as a bridge to transplant, for pending recovery of the natural heart, or

extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) procedures.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
