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 ...

Initial ELSO Guidance Document: ECMO for COVID-19 Patients with Severe Cardiopulmonary Failure

ASAIO journal (1992), 2020
Disclaimer: ECMO has, and will certainly continue, to play a role in the management of COVID-19 patients. It should be emphasized that this initial guidance is based on the current best evidence for ECMO use during this pandemic.

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.

Thrombosis and bleeding in extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) without anticoagulation: a systematic review

ASAIO journal (1992), 2020
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) causes both thrombosis and bleeding. Major society guidelines recommend continuous, systemic anticoagulation to prevent thrombosis of the ECMO circuit, though this may be undesirable in those with active, or ...

Thrombus formation during ECMO: Insights from a detailed histological analysis of thrombus composition

Journal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 2022
Intra‐device thrombosis remains one of the most common complications during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). Despite anticoagulation, approximately 35% of patients develop thrombi in the membrane oxygenator, pump heads, or tubing.

Clinical controversies in anticoagulation monitoring and antithrombin supplementation for ECMO

Critical Care, 2020
During extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), a delicate balance is required to titrate systemic anticoagulation to prevent thrombotic complications within the circuit and prevent bleeding in the patient.
