Brief summary

This prospective observational study will evaluate the safety and performance of the MiniLung petite kit in neonatal and pediatric patients with acute respiratory and cardiac failure. The main question it aims to answer is (study hypotheses): Veno-venous (VV) and veno-arterial (VA) Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) using the MiniLung petite kit is safe and improves gas exchange (oxygenation and CO2 removal) and hemodynamic stabilization in neonatal and pediatric patients with severe acute respiratory and/or cardiopulmonary failure within 24 hours compared to the treatment before VV or VA ECMO initiation and maintain a life-sustaining condition.

Interventions

DEVICEMiniLung petite kit combined with the Xenios console

Veno-venous (VV) and veno-arterial (VA) Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) treatment will be performed using the MiniLung petite kit combined with the Xenios console according to their intended use and local standards/requirements.

Inclusion criteria

* Informed consent signed and dated by parents or legal representative and investigator/authorized physician * Patients ≥2- ≤8 kg bodyweight to be treated with the MiniLung petite kit * Acute severe respiratory and/or cardiopulmonary failure with an ECMO indication

Exclusion criteria

* Participation in an interventional clinical study during the preceding 30 days that could interfere with the ECLS therapy * Previous participation in the same study * Prematurity (\<34 weeks gestational age) * Hypersensitivity to heparin or known history of heparin induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) * Impossibility of systemic anticoagulation

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Oxygenation IndexBaseline and during the intervention every 24 hours until a maximum of 29 daysLongitudinal assessments of continuous outcomes will be analyzed by treatment day using mixed models for repeated measures (MMRM), with ECMO mode as a fixed factor (except for analyses performed within the subsets defined by ECMO mode) and the baseline value of the primary endpoint (Oxygenation Index) as a covariate. Within-subject differences between baseline and subsequent visits will be tested using contrasts. The comparison between baseline and the first day on ECMO (initial effect) is considered as the primary outcome.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Hemodynamic stabilizationBaseline and during the intervention every 24 hours until a maximum of 29 daysLongitudinal assessments of continuous outcomes will be analyzed by treatment day using mixed models for repeated measures (MMRM), with ECMO mode as a fixed factor (except for analyses performed within the subsets defined by ECMO mode) and the baseline value of the secondary endpoint (Hemodynamic stabilization) as a covariate. Within-subject differences between baseline and subsequent visits will be tested using contrasts. The comparison between baseline and the first day on ECMO (initial effect) is considered as the secondary outcome of Hemodynamic stabilization.
Facilitate lung-protective ventilation in patients additionally receiving invasive mechanical ventilationBaseline and during the intervention every 24 hours until a maximum of 29 daysLongitudinal assessments of continuous outcomes will be analyzed by treatment day using mixed models for repeated measures (MMRM), with ECMO mode as a fixed factor (except for analyses performed within the subsets defined by ECMO mode) and the baseline value of the secondary endpoint (Lung-protective ventilation) as a covariate. Within-subject differences between baseline and subsequent visits will be tested using contrasts. The comparison between baseline and the first day on ECMO (initial effect) is considered as the secondary outcome of lung-protective ventilation.
Assessment of the frequency of complicationsBaseline and during the intervention every 24 hours until a maximum of 29 daysLongitudinal assessments of continuous outcomes will be analyzed by treatment day using mixed models for repeated measures (MMRM), with ECMO mode as a fixed factor (except for analyses performed within the subsets defined by ECMO mode) and the baseline value of the secondary endpoint (Frequency of complications) as a covariate. Within-subject differences between baseline and subsequent visits will be tested using contrasts. The comparison between baseline and the first day on ECMO (initial effect) is considered as the secondary outcome of frequency of complications.
