ECMO and ECLS distributor in Slovakia

We have been developing extracorporeal life support in Slovakia for more than thirteen years.

ECMO is not a product you deliver and leave. It needed sites, trained teams, protocols and availability at night – and then ECPR on top of that.

The platforms cover circulatory and pulmonary support including extracorporeal CO2 removal (ECCO2R), and are used in adult and paediatric intensive care.

What we supply

Xenios 2.0 ECLS

All-in-one platform for patients from neonates to adults, MDR certified.

Xenios 1.0 ECLS

Established platform for circulatory and pulmonary support.

ECCO2R

Extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal.

Manufacturers in this field. Xenios AG (Fresenius Medical Care). Product pages on this site are in Slovak, because they are written for the physicians who use the devices – ask us and we will send the portfolio for this field in English.

What market entry looks like. A device reaches a Slovak hospital through categorisation at the Ministry of Health, registration with the State Institute for Drug Control (ŠÚKL) and a public tender. We handle all three, and then stand at the procedure.
