QuickFlow™ Dual Lumen Catheter is a single use dual lumen catheter, which provides both venous drainage and reinfusion of blood via the femoral vein, that is indicated for use for up to 72 hours in patients with acute respiratory failure requiring partial Veno-Venous Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (full hemodynamic support is not required and predicted flows needed to maintain adequate oxygenation do not exceed 3.5l/min) where other available treatment options have failed and continued clinical deterioration is expected or the risk of death is imminent.
