CESAR: conventional ventilatory support vs extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for severe adult respiratory failure. [PDF]

, 2006
BACKGROUND: An estimated 350 adults develop severe, but potentially reversible respiratory failure in the UK annually. Current management uses intermittent positive pressure ventilation, but barotrauma, volutrauma and oxygen toxicity can prevent lung ...

Neonates with acute liver failure have higher overall mortality but similar posttransplant outcomes as older infants

Liver Transplantation, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Neonatal acute liver failure (ALF) carries a high mortality rate; however, little data exist on its peritransplant hospital course. This project aimed to identify factors associated with outcomes in neonates with ALF using large multicenter databases.

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

Current Opinion in Critical Care, 2005
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 ...

Basics of Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation

Surgical Clinics of North America, 2022
The use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is becoming commonplace worldwide in ICUs for the care of patients with respiratory and/or cardiac failure. Understanding the use of ECMO and the management of these complex patients will be vital to current and future clinicians as ECMO use continues to grow.

Cannulation in extracorporeal membrane oxygenation [PDF]

Critical Care, 2014
We sincerely appreciate the studies performed about mobilization in extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) patients [1]. An increasing number of studies can be seen recently in this very challenging group of patients. Mobilizing an ECMO patient is a complicated task to due to surrounding equipment and the nature of cannulations [2,3].
