Converting Hemodialysis (HD) membranes to Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) machines [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Crises like COVID-19 can create a massive unmet demand for rare blood oxygenation membrane machines for impaired lungs: Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) machines. Meanwhile, Hemodialysis (HD) machines, which use membranes to supplement failing kidneys, are extremely common and widespread, with orders of magnitude more available than for ECMO ...
