Oxygenator impact on voriconazole in extracorporeal membrane oxygenation circuits

Perfusion, 2020
Introduction: To determine the oxygenator impact on alterations of voriconazole in a contemporary neonatal/pediatric (1/4 inch) and adolescent/adult (3/8 inch) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation circuit including the Quadrox-i® oxygenator.

EXTRACORPOREAL MEMBRANE OXYGENATION

Nursing Clinics of North America, 1997
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is prolonged cardiopulmonary bypass used to treat critically ill patients with severe but reversible cardiac and/or respiratory failure. The severity of their symptoms, the rapid deterioration in their conditions, the difficulty in mechanical transportation, and the risks of traveling with an ECMO circuit ...

Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 2008
ECMO is an important tool to provide oxygen delivery and carbon dioxide removal in addition to cardiac support for patients with intractable reversible respiratory or cardiovascular collapse unresponsive to conventional treatment. Even though ECMO can be a life-saving modality, it is expensive and labor-intensive and carries a significant complication ...

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

Medical Journal of Australia, 2009
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.

Pediatric Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation

Critical Care Clinics, 2017
Extracorporeal life support is a modified form of cardiopulmonary bypass. Experience in extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has come largely from the neonatal population. Most centers have transitioned the ECMO pumps from roller pumps to centrifugal technology.

Mobile extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1993
Transport of critically ill neonates in need of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation can be risky. Their extreme cardiorespiratory instability may delay or even preclude conventional transport to an extracorporeal membrane oxygenation center. We report the use of a UH-1 helicopter specially adapted for mobile extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support ...

Hollow fiber membrane oxygenator

Journal of Biomedical Materials Research, 1971
AbstractHollow fibers have been produced and evaluated for use as membrane oxygenators in an artificial heart device. Gas permeable capillaries now commercially available are unsuitable for this use because of: (1) low percent open cross‐sectional area, (2) large internal diameter, and (3) high cost.

Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Trials

Pediatrics, 1990
The randomized trial reported by O'Rourke and coworkers1 (they call it a randomized study but why not call it what it is?) provides insight into the dilemma faced when trying to evaluate a therapy believed, rightly or wrongly, to be efficacious. The fact that extracorporeal membrane oxygenation therapy for persistent pulmonary hypertension of the ...

Oxygen transport in membrane oxygenizers

Biomedical Engineering, 1985
Mass transfer properties of the Soviet membrane oxygenator, MOCT, are tested. The liquid chambers of the oxygenator are made of disk membranes separating the moving blood from gas chambers. Processes of transportation and saturation of the blood film with oxygen are described by the simultaneous solution of the hydrodynamic and diffusion problem that ...

Mobile Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation

Critical Care Nursing Clinics of North America, 1995
Mobile extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is being offered by select ECMO centers in the United States. Mobile ECMO can be performed for the critically ill patient who is unable to be transported by conventional ambulance transport. This article discusses the logistics and safety considerations associated with mobile ECMO.
