Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

2012
Summary For the last three decades, extracorporeal lung assist (ECLA) has been employed as a life-saving therapy in few highly-specialised centres. A deeper understanding of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) pathophysiology, improved technology and the positive results of recent trials have led to a reassessment of ECLA in the clinical setting.

The Early Change in PaCO2 After Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Initiation is Associated with Neurological Complications.

American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2020
RATIONALE Large decreases in PaCO2 that occur when initiating extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in patients with respiratory failure may cause cerebral vasoconstriction and compromise brain tissue perfusion.

Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation in Pregnancy

Journal of Cardiac Surgery, 2015
Adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) may pose specific challenges in pregnant women, including the need for prone decubitus ventilation and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). We present our experience with ECMO during pregnancy and review the literature on this topic.We performed a systematic literature review using the MEDLINE-NIH ...

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.

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.
