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.

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.

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 ...

ECMO during the COVID-19 pandemic: When is it justified? [PDF]
, 2020 Abrams et al. recently introduced their view of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) utilisation during the COVID-19 pandemic as a burden-based approach, highlighting that surge conditions may result in decreased utilization of ECMO, as resources ...

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 ...
