An Optimized Multi‐Stage Drainage Cannula Design for Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation

Artificial Organs, Volume 50, Issue 10, Page 1372-1383, October 2026.
This study utilized an extensive optimization involving n = 540 design of experiments to produce a superior drainage cannula design. Compared to the clinically used Maquet model, our optimized design demonstrated reduced blood stagnation volumes, increased cannula tip velocities, and higher upper body drainage, potentially minimizing risk of thrombosis

Adjunctive Cold Atmospheric Plasma Therapy for Tracheostomy Wound Healing in Critically Ill Patients: A Pilot Randomised Controlled Trial

International Wound Journal, Volume 23, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) therapy has emerged as a promising therapy for wound healing. This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility, safety and efficacy of adjunctive CAP therapy for early tracheostomy wound healing compared with standard wound care (SWC) alone.

Catheter Thrombectomy of Massive Pulmonary Embolism Secondary to Spongostan Embolisation: A Case Report

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 108, Issue 3, Page 1029-1033, September 1, 2026.
ABSTRACT Novel adjuvant hemostatic agents are increasingly used in surgical procedures to achieve hemostasis. We present a case of embolisation of hemostatic agents during a neurosurgical operation, causing massive PE requiring venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support, in a 7‐year‐old boy.

Decannulation of tracheotomized patients after long-term mechanical ventilation – results of a prospective multicentric study in German neurological early rehabilitation hospitals

BMC Anesthesiology, 2018
Background In the course of neurological early rehabilitation, decannulation is attempted in tracheotomized patients after weaning due to its considerable prognostic significance. We aimed to identify predictors of a successful tracheostomy decannulation.

Long‐Term Outcomes of Patients Undergoing Cricothyrotomy at a Tertiary Care Level One Trauma Center

The Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 9, Page 3932-3936, September 2026.
This retrospective study of 48 patients undergoing emergent cricothyrotomy (2014–2025) evaluated short‐ and long‐term outcomes and complications. Common complications included dysphagia, pneumonia, and dysphonia, with delayed conversion to tracheostomy associated with increased pneumonia risk; long‐term issues included persistent dysphagia, subglottic ...

Prolonged VV‐ECMO as a Bridge to Recovery From Persistent Hepatopulmonary Syndrome After Liver Transplantation: A Case Report [PDF]

Clin Case Rep
ABSTRACT In persistent HPS‐related hypoxemia after LT, prolonged VV‐ECMO can serve as a bridge to recovery when conventional oxygenation strategies fail. Serial contrast‐enhanced echocardiography and multidisciplinary management may support weaning decisions and the management of ECMO‐related complications.
