ECPR—extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation [PDF]
Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) is a salvage procedure in which extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is initiated emergently on patients who have had cardiac arrest (CA) and on whom the conventional cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CCPR) has failed. Awareness and usage of ECPR are increasing all over the world.

Establishing and Sustaining an ECPR Program
The use of extracorporeal support after failed return of a spontaneous ciruculation during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) is well described. There are 4 distinct phases for resuscitation with ECPR and the time spent in each phase is critical for ...

Evaluation of systemic and cerebral hemodynamics after systematic and early extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation in swine [PDF]
Background: Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) is thought to be efficient when performed promptly after cardiac arrest. However, its neurological benefit remains questionable if applied very early and systematically.

The design of emergency medicine trials can raise several ethical concerns - risks may be greater, and randomisation may have to occur before consent. Research in emergency medicine is thus an illuminating context to explore the interplay between risk and randomisation, and the consequences for consent.

Cost effectiveness of pre-hospital extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest – An analysis of the PRECARE study [PDF]
Background: While the use of pre-hospital extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation for refractory out of hospital cardiac arrest is increasing, there is little data on whether it is cost-effective.

The Pre-ECPR score for predicting favorable neurological outcomes after extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation: protocol for external validation in the Prague OHCA trial cohort [PDF]
Aim: No clear consensus exists for extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) patient selection in refractory cardiac arrest. Evidence suggests that current binary criteria yield either low favorable outcome rates, when being liberal, or exclude
