Diagram demonstrating oxygenation of both limbs of the dual-lumen Protek Duo cannula. Oxygenating the proximal limb creates a configuration similar to conventional venovenous ECMO while oxygenating the distal limb creates an oxygenated right ventricular assist device. This configuration is V-VP ECMO with split flow to the pulmonary artery and the right atrium
