Awake ECMO and mobilizing patients on ECMO [PDF]

Indian Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2021
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a lifesaving technology in critically ill patients who present with cardiac/pulmonary/combined cardiopulmonary failure. These patients are the sickest of all patients in any critical care unit and will invariably have a prolonged course and rehabilitation.

Trends in survival during the pandemic in patients with critical COVID-19 receiving mechanical ventilation with or without ECMO: analysis of the Japanese national registry data

Critical Care, 2022
Background The survival rate of patients with critical coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) over time is inconsistent in different settings. In Japan, a national database was organized to monitor and share the patient generation across the country in an ...

Neonatal ECMO [PDF]

Frontiers in Medicine, 2018
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is becoming increasingly utilized to manage neonates with cardiac and respiratory failure. The procedure involves extensive anticoagulation in a sick neonate with underlying disease pathology. In addition, the immature hemostatic system in the neonate adds to the complexity of titrating the necessary ...

Coupling of right ventricular function to pulmonary circulation as an independent predictor for non invasive ventilation failure in SARSCoV 2-related acute respiratory distress syndrome

American Heart Journal Plus, 2022
Study objectives: To assess whether echocardiography, systematically performed, could help in risk stratifying patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) due to SARS-CoV2 (COVID) infection for non invasive ventilation (NIV) failure. Design:

A Successful Case of Heart Transplantation and Post-Transplant COVID-19 infection in a Patient with Cardiogenic Shock [PDF]

Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Medicine, 2023
Cardiogenic shock is one of the main concerns for cardiologists, especially heart failure specialists, and in the majority of cases, the underlying mechanism is an extensive acute myocardial infarction.

Parathyroid hormone serum concentration kinetic profile in critically ill patients undergoing continuous renal replacement therapies: a prospective observational study

Endokrynologia Polska, 2021
INTRODUCTION: Elevated serum parathormone (PTH) levels have been observed in acute kidney injury and are related to calcium-phosphate metabolism disturbance, decreased renal production of 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D3, impaired renal PTH excretion, and other ...

Sepsis and ECMO [PDF]

Indian Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2020
Sepsis is being recognized as an important complication of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and its presence is a poor prognostic marker and increases the overall mortality. The survival rate differs in the various types of cannulation techniques. Adult patients with prolonged duration of ECMO constitute the major risk population.

Position of draining venous cannula in extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for respiratory and respiratory/circulatory support in adult patients

Critical Care, 2018
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is used in critically ill patients with severe pulmonary and/or cardiac failure. Blood is drained from the venous system and pumped through a membrane oxygenator where it is oxygenated.
