Advances in extracorporeal membrane oxygenator design for artificial placenta technology. [PDF]
Artif Organs, 2020 Extreme prematurity, defined as a gestational age of fewer than 28 weeks, is a significant health problem worldwide. It carries a high burden of mortality and morbidity, in large part due to the immaturity of the lungs at this stage of development.

Biofilm microbiome in extracorporeal membrane oxygenator catheters. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2021 Despite the formation of biofilms on catheters for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), some patients do not show bacteremia. To elucidate the specific linkage between biofilms and bacteremia in patients with ECMO, an improved understanding of the
