ECMO use in Germany: An analysis of 29,929 ECMO runs
PLOS ONE, 2021 Background Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) use is increasing despite limited evidence. The aim of this study was to demonstrate heterogeneity of ECMO use and its association with hospital size and annual frequency in Germany. Methods This is a database analysis of all ECMO cases in Germany from 2010 to 2016 using the German Diagnosis ...

Neonatal Network, 2004 Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is essentially a heart-lung bypass machine that can be used to support certain critically ill neonates. ECMO therapy reached a peak in usage in the mid to late 1980s. At that time, ECMO was most often used for severe complications of persistent pulmonary hypertension, meconium aspiration, congenital ...

The ECMO specialist’s role in troubleshooting ECMO emergencies
The Egyptian Journal of Critical Care Medicine, 2018 Whether a patient still has native lung function or not, respiratory extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) complications need an immediate response from the ECMO team assigned to the patient. Methodological troubleshooting can be a key aspect to responding to an ECMO emergency if the cause of the issue is not clearly identifiable.

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.

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.

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 ...

Liver Transplantation, EarlyView., 2022 Abstract Neonatal acute liver failure (ALF) carries a high mortality rate; however, little data exist on its peritransplant hospital course. This project aimed to identify factors associated with outcomes in neonates with ALF using large multicenter databases.

ECMO simulation training during a worldwide pandemic: The role of ECMO telesimulation
, 2022 Background: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a supportive therapy used in the most severe forms of acute respiratory distress syndrome. Due to its intrinsic complexity and relatively low annual volume, simulation is essential for efficient ...
