Expanding the Donor Pool in Pediatric Transplantations: Successful Domino Liver Transplantation From the Youngest Reported Pediatric DCD Donor Using Normothermic Regional Perfusion in the United States

open access: yesPediatric Transplantation, Volume 30, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Normothermic regional perfusion (NRP) during donation after circulatory death (DCD) improves abdominal organ utilization by limiting warm ischemia time. Its application in young pediatric donors remains exceptionally rare; the youngest previously reported DCD‐NRP donor in the United States was 5 years of age.

ECMO IN THE NEWBORN

American Journal of Perinatology, 2000
Since the first use in neonates in 1974, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has been a life-saving technology for newborns with respiratory and cardiac failure. ECMO has been used to treat a variety of cardio-respiratory problems, including meconium aspiration syndrome (MAS), persistent pulmonary hypertension of the neonate (PPHN), congenital ...

Systemic anticoagulation in ECMO

Seminars in Pediatric Surgery, 2023
While unfractionated heparin (UFH) remains the mainstay of anticoagulation during pediatric extracorporeal life support, direct thrombin inhibitors (DTIs) are increasingly used. In this article, we will review most recent evidence regarding utilization of both UFH and DTIs and compare their known advantages and disadvantages.

On “Not Recommending” ECMO

Hastings Center Report, 2020
AbstractThe neonatologist was describing the dire situation, the complexity of the fetus's anomalies, and the options—comfort care, some resuscitation—and finished by saying, “We would not recommend ECMO …” “We would not recommend” is a curious phrase.

ECMO

Critical Care Nursing Quarterly, 2018
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is used for both cardiac and pulmonary failure when conventional measures are no longer substantial in supporting life. ECMO is not a permanent device. It is used as a temporary measure to allow the lungs and heart, as well as other organs to recover.

Cardiac performance in ECMO candidates: Echocardiographic predictors for ECMO

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1992
Twenty-one neonates with severe respiratory failure, who met criteria in this center for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), underwent echocardiographic examinations to assess the role of cardiac dysfunction in determining the need for ECMO. The echocardiographic indexes of function included peak aortic and pulmonary flow velocity, aortic and ...

ECMO in trauma

Journal of Trauma and Acute Care Surgery, 2017
To the Editor:We read with interest the case series and systematic review of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for ARDS in trauma by Robba et al.1 They report that of 31 trauma patients who required ECMO (27 from systematic literature review and 4 in their institutional case series) only ...

Successful gastrorrhaphy on ECMO

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1988
From April 1985 to November 1987, over 100 infants were evaluated for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in the treatment of respiratory failure. Of these infants, 40 underwent ECMO after failure of conventional treatment. Four developed gastroduodenal perforations. One developed a perforation prior to going on ECMO and died after several hours
