Early left atrial venting versus conventional treatment for left ventricular decompression during venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support: The EVOLVE‐ECMO randomized clinical trial

European Journal of Heart Failure, 2023
Few studies have reported data on the optimal timing of left ventricular (LV) unloading during venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA‐ECMO) for cardiac arrest or shock.

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

Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis, 2023
Extracorporeal 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 ...

Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation

International Journal of Technology Assessment in Health Care, 1991
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a means of diverting a fraction or all of the circulation through a device that permits gas exchange across a permeable membrane. The site of removal and the site of return of blood are dictated primarily by practical considerations based on the volume of flow of blood to be diverted and whether a ...

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 ...

Anti-thrombogenic Surface Coatings for Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation: A Narrative Review.

ACS Biomaterials Science & Engineering, 2021
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is used in critical care to manage patients with severe respiratory and cardiac failure. ECMO brings blood from a critically ill patient into contact with a non-endothelialized circuit which can cause clotting ...

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 ...
