An Update on ECMO

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 ...

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.

ECMO and Right Ventricular Failure: Review of the Literature

Journal of Intensive Care Medicine, 2020
Right ventricular (RV) failure is the inability of the RV to maintain sufficient cardiac output in the setting of adequate preload, due to either intrinsic injury to the RV or increased afterload. Medical treatment of RV failure should include optimizing

ECMO cannula review

Perfusion, 2012
This paper reviews the basic fluid dynamics underlying extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) cannula design. General cannula features and their effect on flow are discussed and the specific requirements of different ECMO circuits are explained.

Vascular access in ECMO

Indian Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2020
In critically ill patients, deserving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), choosing the right pattern of cannulation such as veno-venous (VV), veno-arterial (VA), veno-veno-arterial (VVA), and central; selecting the appropriate size cannulae; and good cannulation techniques are all pre-requisites for the successful outcome of ECMO.

ECMO and Survival

2021
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a technology capable of providing short-term mechanical support to the heart, lungs, or both. Despite being employed clinically first in the 1970s [1], the more widespread use of ECMO in critically ill adult patients is a recent phenomenon [2], and the number of centers offering ECMO has grown rapidly ...

Combined Use of CytoSorb and ECMO in Patients with Severe Pneumogenic Sepsis

The thoracic and cardiovascular surgeon, 2020
Background High morbidity and mortality are frequently reported in intensive care patients suffering from severe sepsis with systemic inflammation. With the development of severe respiratory failure, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is often ...

Anticoagulation in neonatal ECMO

Seminars in Perinatology, 2018
Despite advances made in technology and neonatal intensive care, the rate of hemorrhagic and thrombotic complications remains unacceptably high in patients undergoing extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and these complications negatively impact morbidity and mortality.
