Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation

Anesthesia & Analgesia, 1992
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation is still a relatively new technology that has recently achieved recognition after initial clinical disappointment in the late 1970s. At present, it is considered standard therapy for the full-term infant with PPHN who fails CMV and extraordinary, heroic therapy for older children and adults with ARF or cardiac ...

The History of Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation and the Development of Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Anticoagulation

Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis, 2023
AbstractExtracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) was first started for humans in early 1970s by Robert Bartlett. Since its inception, there have been numerous challenges with extracorporeal circulation, such as coagulation and platelet activation, followed by consumption of coagulation factors and platelets, and biocompatibility of tubing, pump, and ...

EXTRACORPOREAL MEMBRANE OXYGENATION

Nursing Clinics of North America, 1997
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is prolonged cardiopulmonary bypass used to treat critically ill patients with severe but reversible cardiac and/or respiratory failure. The severity of their symptoms, the rapid deterioration in their conditions, the difficulty in mechanical transportation, and the risks of traveling with an ECMO circuit ...

Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 2008
ECMO is an important tool to provide oxygen delivery and carbon dioxide removal in addition to cardiac support for patients with intractable reversible respiratory or cardiovascular collapse unresponsive to conventional treatment. Even though ECMO can be a life-saving modality, it is expensive and labor-intensive and carries a significant complication ...

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

Medical Journal of Australia, 2009
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a technique that involves oxygenation of blood outside the body, and provides support to selected patients with severe respiratory or cardiac failure. The two major ECMO modalities are venoarterial and venovenous.

Pediatric Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation

Critical Care Clinics, 2017
Extracorporeal life support is a modified form of cardiopulmonary bypass. Experience in extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has come largely from the neonatal population. Most centers have transitioned the ECMO pumps from roller pumps to centrifugal technology.

Argatroban in Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation

Artificial Organs, 2007
Abstract:  The objective of this study was to assess the required dose and anticoagulatory effect of argatroban (Mitsubishi, Pharma Deutschland GmbH, Düsseldorf, Germany), a direct thrombin inhibitor approved for anticoagulation in patients with heparin‐induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) undergoing extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO).

Echocardiography for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

Echocardiography, 2022
AbstractExtracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) provides advanced cardiopulmonary life support for patients in cardiac and/or respiratory failure. Echocardiography provides essential diagnostic and anatomic information prior to ECMO initiation, allows for safe and efficient ECMO cannula positioning, guides optimization of flow, provides a modality ...

Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation in the NICU

Neonatal Network, 2015
ABSTRACTExtracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) was developed for adults but has been used in neonates as a life-saving rescue therapy for infants with respiratory failure and/or cardiac collapse as a result of congenital diaphragmatic hernia, meconium aspiration syndrome, persistent pulmonary hypertension, or systemic sepsis.

Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation in the Newborn

Military Medicine, 1990
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is used in the treatment of reversible pulmonary disease in the newborn. The ECMO program at Wilford Hall USAF Medical Center began in 1985 and to date, 57 patients have been placed on bypass for a mean of 125 hours.
