Superimposed high-frequency jet ventilation combined with continuous positive airway pressure/assisted spontaneous breathing improves oxygenation in patients with H1N1-associated ARDS [PDF]
Background: Numerous cases of swine-origin 2009 H1N1 influenza A virus (H1N1)-associated acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) bridged by extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) therapy have been reported; however, complication rates are high. We

Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Complications in Heparin- and Bivalirudin-Treated Patients
OBJECTIVES:. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation is a potentially life-saving intervention in refractory cardiopulmonary failure, but it requires anticoagulation to prevent circuit thromboses, which exposes the patient to hemorrhagic complications ...

EXTRACORPOREAL MEMBRANE OXYGENATION
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has become a more or less accepted standard in the algorithm of advanced acute respiratory distress syndrome therapy in adult patients when all other treatment options have failed. This article reviews the current status of ECMO therapy with particular focus on new technical developments and their potential ...
