Gender and age disparity in the initiation of life-supporting treatments: a population-based cohort study

BMC Medical Ethics, 2017
Background The relationships between age and the life-supporting treatments use, and between gender and the life-supporting treatments use are still controversial. Using extracorporeal membrane oxygenation as an example of life-supporting treatments, the

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 ...

Mobile Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation

ASAIO Journal, 2020
To review our experience with mobile extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). Mobile ECMO team included: ECMO-trained surgeon and intensivist, specialist nurse, and perfusionist. Patients were cannulated for venous-arterial (V-A) or venous-venous (V-V) ECMO, depending on clinical indication.

Thrombosis and Bleeding in Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) Without Anticoagulation: A Systematic Review.

ASAIO journal (1992), 2020
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) causes both thrombosis and bleeding. Major society guidelines recommend continuous, systemic anticoagulation to prevent thrombosis of the ECMO circuit, though this may be undesirable in those with active, or ...
