Abstract: A building including at least one pressure lock configured to facilitate an exchange of materials and persons between the building and a clean area in the building; a ventilation arrangement configured to feed supply air from the building into a top of the clean area; and an extraction arrangement configured to extract exhaust air from a bottom of the clean area into the building so that the clean area has a positive pressure relative to the building, wherein the clean area includes a floor and a shell that encloses the clean area above the floor pressure tight, wherein the building includes an outer enclosure that protects the clean area against weather conditions outside the building, wherein the shell is flexible at least in a major portion of a surface area of the shell and the positive pressure moves the shell into a shape of the clean area.

Abstract: The invention relates to an arrangement having a blood pump and a gas exchanger for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. According to the invention, the blood pump is designed as a pulsatile blood pump and is arranged with the gas exchanger in the same housing. The pulsatile blood pump and the gas exchanger are preferably connected to the same gas source so that the blood pump can be pneumatically driven. The novel ECMO system has a simple design, is flexible, and in particular can be used directly on the patient.
