ECMO, that is, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, also known as “artificial lung”, is mainly used to draw venous blood out of the body, excrete carbon dioxide in the blood through oxygenator oxygenation, and pump it back into the human body to maintain normal cardiopulmonary function of patients. Although it does not play a therapeutic role, it can buy more time for medical staff. However, the number of domestic ECMO is small, and it has been monopolized by foreign medical groups for a long time, not only the cost of equipment is high, but also the cost of start-up consumables is very expensive. And all these high consumption has changed after the advent of domestic ECMO.
Innovative Value:
The ECMO system developed by Rococo Shield Medical has recently successfully completed the registration of animal tests, further verifying its safety and efficacy, and promoting the ECMO system of Lung Shield Medical into a new stage of development. At the same time, Lung Shield Medical’s laminated membrane oxygenator achieved 16 days of good operation, a major breakthrough compared to the industry’s best 14 days, providing a more reliable solution for long-term cardiopulmonary circulation support.
Design strategy
Laminated membrane design:
Due to the high replacement cost of the oxygenator and the problems of leakage and infection that may occur during the replacement process, the clinical use cycle of the oxygenator is also put forward higher requirements. The gas exchange membrane of the traditional membrane oxygenator adopts a winding method similar to web paper, which has long blood flow path, high transmembrane pressure difference, and is easier to form thrombosis between membranes, which is more suitable for short-term extracorporeal circulation of traditional extracardiac surgery, and the first laminated membrane oxygenator in China to adopt a longitudinal and horizontal overlapping design, shorter blood flow path, larger cross-section, more uniform blood distribution, and lower transmembrane pressure difference, which greatly prolongs the clinical use time, and is relatively more suitable for long-acting extracorporeal circulation.

solution
In the industrial design process, the Rococo team provided appearance design services for Kangshang Biomedical this time, in the early stage of design, we fully considered the cumbersome and inconvenient use of traditional oxygen generators, and improved the experience of medical staff in use; From the user’s point of view, the designer should stand in the user’s point of view, taking into account the shape, size, material and other factors of the model, in order to meet the user’s aesthetic and practical needs. After preliminary sketch design and market research, the product designer completes the prototype design and prepares it for the next structural design.
Structural design link. In this link, the prototype design should be further implemented, and the component layout and assembly method inside the body should be determined through the design of the structure to ensure that the performance and use effect of the machine are better. Even a very small structural design requires careful consideration in order to increase production efficiency and reduce production costs in series production in the future.
In the prototype production stage, the factory will make a prototype like industrial design and structural design drawings based on the product renderings, 3D files and BOM tables designed by the designer , to verify the results of the design phase and check whether the prototype meets the customer’s needs in terms of appearance and function.
In the mold making stage, the factory starts to design the mold according to the design drawings, and DFM (Design for mold) will be carried out before the mold design Evaluate the feasibility of design drawings from all aspects related to mold design and production, including parting, inlet, ejection mechanism, molding process, post-processing process such as oil injection and screen printing, production efficiency and cost. After the completion of the mold design, the entire mold manufacturing and improvement process will be followed up to ensure the mold quality and manufacturing cycle, while verifying and continuously optimizing the early product design to ensure the quality, cost and delivery time of subsequent product mass production.
The low-volume pilot production stage, which is an essential step for manufacturing companies before releasing new products. It can measure the quality of the product, the cost of the production process, and the feasibility by prototyping several prototypes. In the small batch trial production stage, the manufacturer will improve and confirm most of the process information, and optimize the production process through a certain degree of technical adjustment, improve production efficiency and reduce production costs. When the production process and process flow are approved and validated, the manufacturer can conduct small-scale production testing. The output at this stage is usually tens to hundreds of pieces, and this magnitude covers all aspects of the trial production process. In accordance with strict product standards, manufacturers conduct multiple tests and tests to determine the reliability and durability of products. Manufacturers need to record all production data and evaluate all loss and cost data so that you can refer to this data when expanding production later. Low-volume trial production is an inevitable part of the entire product development process of manufacturing enterprises, and this stage is the necessary preparation for large-scale production. In the pilot production stage, manufacturers can accurately evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of the product process, and give necessary modification suggestions, while also making the product more in line with market needs. On the basis of small-scale production tests and statistical data, small-batch trial production helps oxygen generator manufacturers to determine better processes through the evolution of a small amount of production, and provide a more stable production foundation during formal production, and also lay a good foundation for later product promotion and market expansion.
Mass production link. According to the requirements of mold drawings, many parts that need to be assembled such as internal parts and electronic components of the body are produced, and these components are assembled according to the structural design requirements, and finally a stable and efficient oxygen generator is produced. In this process, it is necessary to operate in strict accordance with the ISO9001 production quality management system to ensure that the quality of each process reaches the corresponding level.
To sum up, in the whole process of product development, designers, manufacturers and engineers should strive for excellence in the internal and external design, structural design, prototype, mold and mass production of the product, to ensure that each oxygen generator is high-quality and efficient, and contribute to improving people’s lives and improving production efficiency, and promoting the rapid development of the industry

Problems encountered by customers in this project:
In the past, due to the inherent industry characteristics of the medical product market, the medical products used in hospitals only need to meet the functions, and there are no special requirements for appearance. On the contrary, civilian medical devices are more particular about the shape and color of the product. When the traditional channel sales turn to the civilian retail market, the need for enterprises to improve the appearance of their products becomes more and more urgent. LKK design breaks the cold and intuitive feeling of traditional medical products, thus successfully opening the door to the civilian market through product upgrades.
Business and services provided by LKK:
LKK started with the analysis of the user population and found a group of people who “are not patients but need medical equipment”: outdoor extreme sports enthusiasts. These groups of people need to monitor their physical conditions from time to time when exercising outdoors. In the past, the method of understanding one’s physical state by experience was unscientific and accurate, and it was easy to cause harm to the body. LKK seizes the needs and pain points of such people to design a new product positioning.
