Hemovent
Redefining the field of Extracorporeal Life Support (ECLS and ECMO)
Hemovent, a MicroPort® Innovation Lab, introduces the MOBYBOX™ system, an extremely portable ECLS solution designed for ease of use.
This highly innovative device, small enough to fit in a backpack, is a life-saving technology designed to bring heart-lung support to a fully new dimension.
MOBYBOX™: PRECISION MEETS SIMPLICITY
Utilizing only pneumatic power as its energy source, MOBYBOX™ is the first ECLS machine to integrate both blood flow control and gas management into a single lightweight (2 kg) unit.
It eliminates the need for complex software or external power sources, making it an ideal system for various clinical settings.
This design approach, based on low dynamics research, forms the foundation for our BIONIQUE FLOW TECHNOLOGY.
MOBYBOX™ Pump: Pneumatically powered bi-ventricular displacement pump
The MOBYBOX™ system utilizes a pneumatically powered bi-ventricular displacement pump. Similar to the human heart, this pump design is among the most durable existing pumping systems. Furthermore, pneumatically powered bi-ventricular displacement pumps are the gentlest pumps for blood. Our BIONIQUE FLOW pump technology is unique within the field of ECLS therapy.
While some traditional gas exchangers feature stacked designs with corners susceptible to clotting, the MOBYBOX™ employs a unique design to address this challenge. Our design seals the corner regions of the stacked deck of hollow fiber membranes, creating a cylindrical stack. This design aligns with the natural flow behavior of liquids, mimicking the conditions observed in natural circulation to potentially reduce the risk of thrombosis in these areas.
The gas exchanger within MOBYBOX™ incorporates unique design principles to optimize washout, reduce pressure drops, and potentially increase gas exchange efficiency. This results in a very low resistance and is associated with a high normalized CO2 removal rate and a high oxygen transfer capacity.
MOBYBOX™: QUICK WHEN IT COUNTS
In critical situations, every second counts. The MOBYBOX™ system is designed for rapid deployment, ensuring fast and effective intervention. Its compact design and independence from external power sources make it an elegant and safe solution for various clinical applications.
MOBYBOX™: WELL EQUIPPED FOR ALL OPERATIONS
The well equipped MOBYBOX™ system is designed to facilitate patient mobility and simplify transport.
