Femoral venous and femoral arterial cannulas and a method for mitigating the risk of limb ischemia
20230166099 · 2023-06-01 · ·

A method and devices for mitigating the risk of limb ischemia includes inserting a femoral arterial cannula into a femoral artery of a limb, the femoral arterial cannula having a low-profile balloon to seal the femoral artery. Once in situ in the femoral artery, the femoral arterial cannula balloon is inflated to seal said femoral artery to deliver blood flow in a retrograde direction to said limb while simultaneously delivering systemic arterial blood flow. A femoral venous cannula is also inserted into a femoral vein of said limb, the femoral venous cannula having a broad-profile balloon to seal the femoral vein. Once in situ in said femoral vein, the femoral venous cannula balloon is inflated to seal the femoral vein to drain venous blood flow from the limb while simultaneously draining systemic venous blood flow.
