Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO)
Southern African Journal of Critical Care, 2013 Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is increasingly being employed in South African intensive care units for the management of patients with refractory hypoxaemia and for haemodynamic support, particularly following cardiothoracic procedures. ECMO is expensive, however, and there is a danger that this rescue modality may be abused or utilised ...

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1336-1345, April 2025.Abstract Aims Mortality in cardiogenic shock (CS) remains elevated, with the potential for CS causes to impact prognosis and risk stratification. The aim was to investigate in‐hospital prognosis and mortality in CS patients according to aetiology. We also assessed the prognostic accuracy of CardShock and IABP‐SHOCK II scores.

Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation
DeckerMed Transitional Year Weekly Curriculum™, 2018 Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), also known as extracorporeal life support, is the practice of using circulatory assist devices and a gas exchange system to maintain sufficient tissue oxygen delivery, supplementing pulmonary and/or cardiac function in patients whose native physiology is too severely altered to be successfully supported ...

Acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock: an algorithm based ECMO program can improve clinical outcomes. [PDF]
, 2016 Objective: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in our institution resulted in near total mortality prior to the establishment of an algorithm-based program in July 2010. We hypothesized that an algorithm based ECMO program improves the outcome of

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.Temporary RVAD support following HM3 LVAD is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Temporary RVAD support occurs most frequently in INTERMACS 1 or 2 patients and those who require pre‐operative VA‐ECMO. In addition to higher post‐operative mortality, a significantly higher risk of both dialysis and stroke at 1 year post‐implant was observed in ...

Outcomes of early versus delayed initiation of extracorporeal life support in cardiac surgery
Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2019 Background Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation offers temporary hemodynamic support for patients with refractory cardiogenic shock after cardiovascular surgery. However, the initiation time for such patients is controversial. Changing the initiation time

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.Abstract Aims Donation after circulatory death (DCD) has emerged as a strategy to increase the donor pool for heart transplantation (HT). Left ventricular assist device (LVAD) patients represent a discrete and unique population. We sought to explore the early outcomes of DCD‐HT compared with donation after brain death (DBD) HT in LVAD patients. Methods
