Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation
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.

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 ...

Basics of Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation
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.

The Role of rescue therapies in the treatment of severe ARDS [PDF]
ARDS is characterized by a non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema with bilateral chest radiograph opacities and hypoxemia refractory to oxygen therapy. It is a common cause of admission to the ICU due to hypoxemic respiratory failure requiring mechanical ...
