Circuit simplicity

  • Integrated sensors may eliminate the need for pressure transducers and external blood saturation monitoring.2–4
  • Simplify the circuit for patient transport, ambulation, and rehabilitation.2–4
  • Fewer connections minimize the number of areas prone to blood clot formation and air entrainment.2–4
The Nautilus™ Smart ECMO module features integrated sensors in the blood inlet port that measure pressure and oxygen saturation.
The Nautilus™ Smart ECMO module features integrated sensors in the blood outlet port that measure pressure and oxygen saturation.

Streamlined workflow

  • Light bar provides at-a-glance assessment of oxygenator performance
  • Reduces need to look at multiple devices to get oxygenator-related performance data
  • Visual and audio alerts when limits are exceeded
  • Displayed data allows clinicians to clearly communicate oxygenator status among ECMO team members

Designed for ECMO

Circular flow-path technology

The Nautilus™ Smart ECMO module has a transverse flow-path with a circular profile. Transverse flow minimizes surface contact area while achieving a low blood-side pressure drop. The circular profile eliminates corners where low flow and stasis are known to occur. Designed for durability and long-term performance, the circular flow-path design improves long-term gas transfer.1

Designed for durability and long-term performance, incorporate the Nautilus™ oxygenator into your current ECMO circuit.

Potential complications related to the use of ECMO devices include, but are not limited to, heart, vessel, or lung damage, hypoxia, anemia, irritation, toxic reaction, infection, hemorrhage, liver or kidney failure, stroke, and death. The benefits of extracorporeal support must be weighed against the risk of systemic anticoagulation and must be assessed by the prescribing physician.
