The Impact of Vascular Complications on Survival of Patients on Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation. [PDF]
, 2016 BACKGROUND: There are various factors that can influence the survival of patients receiving venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA ECMO). Vascular complications from femoral cannulation are common and are potentially serious.

Converting Hemodialysis (HD) membranes to Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) machines [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Crises like COVID-19 can create a massive unmet demand for rare blood oxygenation membrane machines for impaired lungs: Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) machines. Meanwhile, Hemodialysis (HD) machines, which use membranes to supplement failing kidneys, are extremely common and widespread, with orders of magnitude more available than for ECMO ...

Predicting Mortality Risk in Viral and Unspecified Pneumonia to Assist Clinicians with COVID-19 ECMO Planning [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Respiratory complications due to coronavirus disease COVID-19 have claimed tens of thousands of lives in 2020. Many cases of COVID-19 escalate from Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS-CoV-2) to viral pneumonia to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) to death.

Ethical factors determining ECMO allocation during the COVID-19 pandemic
BMC Medical Ethics, 2021 ECMO is a particularly scarce resource during the COVID-19 pandemic. Its allocation involves ethical considerations that may be different to usual times. There is limited pre-pandemic literature on the ethical factors that ECMO physicians consider during

Management considerations of massive hemoptysis while on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. [PDF]
, 2016 BACKGROUND: Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-A ECMO) is a life-saving procedure in patients with both respiratory and cardiac failure. Bleeding complications are common since patients must be maintained on anticoagulation.
