Wearable modular extracorporeal life support device for mobile treatment of single and multiorgan failure

Abstract

In one exemplary embodiment, a wearable extracorporeal life support device includes a catheter fluidly connected to a pump and first and second modular extracorporeal life support components. The device may also be configured to be attached to a garment. The pump and the first and second modular extracorporeal life support components may be fluidly connected in series. The pump and the first and second modular extracorporeal life support components may also be fluidly connected in parallel. The first modular extracorporeal life support component may be a lung membrane and the second modular extracorporeal life support component may be a dialysis membrane.
