Outcomes in Patients Requiring VENO‐Venous Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation After Cardiac Surgery: An Analysis From the PELS‐1 Study

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
We report an insight from the PELS‐1– a multicentre, international registry focusing on postocardiotomy extracorporeal support use between 2000 and 2020. We focused on 24/2163 (1.1%) patients requiring V‐V ECMO after cardiac surgery. Mortality was high, with 21.7% of patients discharged alive and an overall 1‐year survival probability of 12.5 ...

Incidence and Risk Factors of Limb Ischaemia in Adult Patients Receiving Veno‐Arterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesNursing in Critical Care, Volume 31, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Limb ischaemia is a serious and potentially limb‐threatening vascular complication associated with veno‐arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V‐A ECMO). However, substantial heterogeneity has been observed in the reported incidence rates and identified risk factors among published studies.
