Elsius Biomedical Corp. is a Canadian medical device company located in Calgary that is developing a portable Cardiopulmonary Assist System (pCAS). The technology is based on Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). ECMO is a complex lifesaving technology that provides circulatory and respiratory support to very sick patients who are experiencing certain kinds of circulatory or respiratory failure. It requires a cannula to be inserted into the patient's body, which reroutes blood out of the patient into the pCAS system and then back into the body (usually via the femoral or jugular veins). It is difficult for Elsius to source small quantities of cannulas for validation testing of pCAS technology.This study will aid Elsius in developing their own in-house cannula fabrication knowledge.

Elsius Biomedical Corp.是一家位于加拿大卡尔加里的医疗设备公司，正在开发便携式心肺辅助系统（pCAS）。该技术基于体外膜氧合（ECMO）。ECMO是一种复杂的救生技术，为正在经历某种循环或呼吸衰竭的重病患者提供循环和呼吸支持。它需要在患者体内插入一根导管，将患者体内的血液输送到pCAS系统，然后再输送回体内（通常通过股静脉或颈静脉）。Elsius很难获得少量用于pCAS技术验证测试的套管。这项研究将有助于Elsius开发自己的内部套管制造知识。
