Troubleshooting in extracorporeal life support

open access: yesSwiss Medical Weekly, 2015
Since the first clinical use of extracorporeal circulation in the last century by John Gibbon and the first successful mechanical support of the left ventricular function by Forest Dodrill, the progress of techniques and technologies has helped to ...

Experimental Extracorporeal Circulation System: A Pilot Study in Rats

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
A miniature extracorporeal circulation (ECC) system was developed for reproducible rodent studies. This system incorporates an integrated heat exchanger and a silicone membrane oxygenator within a double‐lumen circuit, resulting in an ultralow priming volume of < 1.5 mL.

Fulminant myocarditis managed with pulsatile extracorporeal life support; use of Twin Pulse Life support (T-PLS®)

open access: yesJournal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2011
Fulminant myocarditis frequently results in severe hemodynamic deterioration. High-dose vasopressors or sometimes mechanical circulatory support are required.

Predicting Device‐Induced Platelet Damage in Assisted Circulation Using a New Biophysical Model and Experimental Validation

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
Quantitative assessment of a newly proposed CFD‐based biophysical model for predicting device‐induced platelet damage by circulatory assist devices was performed. The new model preserved the relative trends observed previously with the power‐law formulation across a range of clinically relevant pump operating conditions, while demonstrating improved ...

Extracorporeal Circulatory Factors and Cerebral Functions in Operated Patients

open access: yesОбщая реаниматология, 2009
Objective: to establish a relationship between the influence of extracorporeal circulation (EC) factors — its duration, mean blood pressure, and the magnitude of cerebral dysfunction. Subjects and methods.

Cannula Pairing Determines Distal Limb Perfusion During Peripheral Veno‐Arterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation: An Experimental Mock‐Loop Study

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
Introducer sheaths are commonly used as distal perfusion cannulas during VA‐ECMO; efficacy is uncertain. A simplified hydraulic bench experiment evaluated cannula and connection configurations during clinically relevant blood flow using water and simulated blood media. Distal flow fraction decreased with larger arterial cannulas and was not restored by

Effects of Extracorporeal Circulation and Heparin on the Phenotype of Platelet Surface Antigens following Heart Surgery

open access: yes, 2000
In this prospective study, the time-dependent effects of extracorporeal circulation and heparin-mediated effects on platelet surface antigens in vitro were investigated using whole blood flow cytometry.

Initial V‐A ECMO Flow‐Index and Its Association With Inflammation, Organ Failure, and Outcomes

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
Higher initial V‐A ECMO flow‐index was associated with greater shock severity and independently associated with multi‐organ failure. Early hemolysis may partly contribute to this association, particularly in eCPR patients, whereas no significant indirect effect through IL‐6 was observed.
