An Optimized Multi‐Stage Drainage Cannula Design for Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
This study utilized an extensive optimization involving n = 540 design of experiments to produce a superior drainage cannula design. Compared to the clinically used Maquet model, our optimized design demonstrated reduced blood stagnation volumes, increased cannula tip velocities, and higher upper body drainage, potentially minimizing risk of thrombosis

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and pregnancy

open access: yesBest Practice & Research Clinical Anaesthesiology
Critical illness during pregnancy poses significant challenges driven by complex interactions between physiological changes, pre-existing conditions, and healthcare disparities. In high-income countries, increasing maternal age and comorbidities complicate obstetric care by triggering an unprecedented rise in cardiac disease during pregnancy, while ...

Efficacy of Antimicrobial Silver‐Plated Dressings Compared to Usual Care in Preventing Left Ventricular Assist Device Driveline Infections

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
Integrating silver‐plated wound dressings into DLES care presents a safe and effective strategy for DLI prevention. Key findings include a 100% infection‐free rate in the Silverlon group, no NPWT and hospital readmission in the Silverlon group, and no severe DESTINE stages (3, 4) in the Silverlon group.

Incidence of Childhood Dilated Cardiomyopathy in Sweden From 1991 to 2019: A National Population‐Based Study

open access: yesActa Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To study the incidence, survival, and mortality of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) in children in Sweden, 1991–2019. Methods Hospital records of 0–18‐year‐olds diagnosed with DCM over a 29‐year period were reviewed. The annual sex‐specific incidence rates of DCM were calculated as new disease cases, divided by the average Swedish same‐sex ...

Refining the treatment of immune checkpoint inhibitor–associated myocarditis: Challenges, innovations and rechallenge considerations

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)‐associated myocarditis has emerged as a severe and clinically complex immune‐related toxicity that poses significant challenges for therapeutic decision‐making in routine cardio‐oncological care. High‐dose corticosteroids remain the first‐line therapy, yet their timing, dosage and tapering require careful clinical ...

Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation in Adults

open access: yesCardiologia Croatica, 2017
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a procedure that provides extracorporeal mechanical circulatory or respiratory support and is used primarily in patients with life-threatening forms of heart or respiratory failure. There are two basic types of ECMO support: veno-venous (VV) and veno-arterial (VA) ECMO.

Progressive Pulmonary Alveolar Proteinosis Diagnosis Masking Pneumonic Lung Carcinoma: Anchoring Bias in Critical Care

open access: yesCytopathology, EarlyView.
A presumed case of pulmonary alveolar proteinosis with clinical deterioration was ultimately identified at autopsy as pneumonic‐type pleomorphic carcinoma. This case highlights the diagnostic overlap between diffuse lung diseases and the risk of anchoring bias in critically ill patients.

Racial disparities among patients on venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in the pre–Coronavirus Disease 2019 and Coronavirus Disease 2019 eras: A retrospective registry reviewCentral MessagePerspective

open access: yesJTCVS Open
Objectives: Although many studies have addressed such disparities caused by COVID-19, to our knowledge, no study has focused on the association of race on outcomes for patients with COVID-19 requiring venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation ...
