This prospective observational study will evaluate the safety and performance of the MiniLung petite kit in neonatal and pediatric patients with acute respiratory and cardiac failure. The main question it aims to answer is (study hypotheses): Veno-venous (VV) and veno-arterial (VA) Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) using the MiniLung petite kit is safe and improves gas exchange (oxygenation and CO2 removal) and hemodynamic stabilization in neonatal and pediatric patients with severe acute respiratory and/or cardiopulmonary failure within 24 hours compared to the treatment before VV or VA ECMO initiation and maintain a life-sustaining condition.

RECRUITINGOxygenation Index
Longitudinal assessments of continuous outcomes will be analyzed by treatment day using mixed models for repeated measures (MMRM), with ECMO mode as a fixed factor (except for analyses performed within the subsets defined by ECMO mode) and the baseline value of the primary endpoint (Oxygenation Index) as a covariate. Within-subject differences between baseline and subsequent visits will be tested using contrasts. The comparison between baseline and the first day on ECMO (initial effect) is considered as the primary outcome.
Time frame: Baseline and during the intervention every 24 hours until a maximum of 29 days
Hemodynamic stabilization
Longitudinal assessments of continuous outcomes will be analyzed by treatment day using mixed models for repeated measures (MMRM), with ECMO mode as a fixed factor (except for analyses performed within the subsets defined by ECMO mode) and the baseline value of the secondary endpoint (Hemodynamic stabilization) as a covariate. Within-subject differences between baseline and subsequent visits will be tested using contrasts. The comparison between baseline and the first day on ECMO (initial effect) is considered as the secondary outcome of Hemodynamic stabilization.
Time frame: Baseline and during the intervention every 24 hours until a maximum of 29 days
Facilitate lung-protective ventilation in patients additionally receiving invasive mechanical ventilation
Longitudinal assessments of continuous outcomes will be analyzed by treatment day using mixed models for repeated measures (MMRM), with ECMO mode as a fixed factor (except for analyses performed within the subsets defined by ECMO mode) and the baseline value of the secondary endpoint (Lung-protective ventilation) as a covariate. Within-subject differences between baseline and subsequent visits will be tested using contrasts. The comparison between baseline and the first day on ECMO (initial effect) is considered as the secondary outcome of lung-protective ventilation.
Time frame: Baseline and during the intervention every 24 hours until a maximum of 29 days
Assessment of the frequency of complications
Longitudinal assessments of continuous outcomes will be analyzed by treatment day using mixed models for repeated measures (MMRM), with ECMO mode as a fixed factor (except for analyses performed within the subsets defined by ECMO mode) and the baseline value of the secondary endpoint (Frequency of complications) as a covariate. Within-subject differences between baseline and subsequent visits will be tested using contrasts. The comparison between baseline and the first day on ECMO (initial effect) is considered as the secondary outcome of frequency of complications.
Time frame: Baseline and during the intervention every 24 hours until a maximum of 29 days
