Predictors of Oxygenator Exchange in Patients Receiving Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation.
Thrombosis within the membrane oxygenator (MO) during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) can lead to sudden oxygenator dysfunction with deleterious effects to the patient.

Oxygen and Cation Ordered Perovskite, Ba2Y2Mn4O11 [PDF]
A three-step route has been developed for the synthesis of a new oxygen-ordered double perovskite, BaYMn2O5.5 or Ba2Y2Mn4O11. (i) The A-site cation ordered perovskite, BaYMn2O5+d, is first synthesized at d ~ 0 by an oxygen-getter-controlled low-O2-pressure encapsulation technique utilizing FeO as the getter for excess oxygen.

Deciphering mechanisms of enhanced-retarded oxygen diffusion in doped Si [PDF]
In this letter, we study enhanced-retarded diffusion of oxygen in doped silicon by means of first principle calculations. We found that the migration of oxygen dimers can not be significantly affected by strain, doping type or rate. We attribute the enhanced oxygen diffusion in p-doped silicon to reduced monomer migration energy, and the retarded ...

Coagulopathy and bleeding is a frequent phenomenon in patients on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. The cause may be multifactorial and it may change over time. We present a case when bleeding was caused by hyperfibrinolysis induced by oxygenator. The

Oxygen and nitrogen abundances in nearby galaxies. Correlations between oxygen abundance and macroscopic properties [PDF]
We performed a compilation of more than 1000 published spectra of HII regions in spiral galaxies. The oxygen and nitrogen abundances in each HII region were recomputed in a homogeneous way, using the P-method. The radial distributions of oxygen and nitrogen abundances were derived.

Anticoagulation Therapy during Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenator Support in Pediatric Patients
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a salvage therapy for critically ill patients. Although ECMO is becoming more common, hemorrhagic and thromboembolic complications remain the major causes of death in patients undergoing ECMO treatments ...
