Comparison of Serial and Parallel Connections of Membrane Lungs against Refractory Hypoxemia in a Mock Circuit

Membranes, 2023
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is an important rescue therapy method for the treatment of severe hypoxic lung injury. In some cases, oxygen saturation and oxygen partial pressure in the arterial blood are low despite ECMO therapy.

Processing of membranes for oxygenation using the Bellhouse-effect

Current Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2015
State-of-the-art lung support systems are limited to short time application because of a lack of long term hemocompatibility and protein absorption on the membrane surfaces. In a highly interdisciplinary project at RWTH Aachen University a biohybrid lung

Membrane for Oxygenation and Development of Membrane Oxygenator.

membrane, 2000
Membrane for oxygenator is mainly porous hollow fiber. Dense membrane has no plasma leak and low permeablity, low strength and high cost. On the hand, porous membrane has high permeablity, low cost and plasma leak. A new thin membrane issilicone-coated porous hollow fiber. This membrane has advantages of dense and porous membranes, and high permeablity,

Analysis of Intra-Aortic Balloon Performance in Open-Heart Surgery

مجلة النهرين للعلوم الهندسية, 2023
A failing heart can be supported in several ways, including cardiopulmonary bypass pumps (CPB), extracorporeal membrane oxygenators (ECMOs), and other types of auxiliary heart pumps.

Sterility and oxygenator function in pre-primed extracorporeal membrane oxygenation: A prospective clinical study

Resuscitation Plus
Aim: Minimizing cardiac arrest times is critical in extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR). Pre-primed extra corporeal membrane oxygenator (ECMO) is used for this, but knowledge is limited to experimental studies.

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation technology as a basis for patients' life support in acute resuscitation syndromes

Технічна інженерія, 2020
It is undoubtedly true that artificial lung ventilation (ALV), has been remaining the leading life-saving way of treating multiple varieties of respiratory system pathology for many years, covering acute conditions (acute pulmonary injury syndrome (APIS),

Acute caffeine treatment protects the developing retina from ischemia‐induced cell death

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Caffeine reduces cell death in the developing retina under ischemia (OGD). This effect does not involve BDNF upregulation or antioxidant pathways (NRF2/VEGF). Neuroprotection occurs mainly through adenosine A2A receptor antagonism, decreasing glutamate release and excitotoxicity, highlighting caffeine's potential as an acute neuroprotective agent in ...

Race and Household Income Are Associated With Disease Outcomes in Pediatric Patients With Antineutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody–Associated Vasculitis Hospitalized in the United States

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Race and household income impact outcomes in patients with rheumatic conditions; however, their role in pediatric antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)–associated vasculitis (AAV) remains poorly understood. We aimed to evaluate whether race and ethnicity and household income are associated with severe AAV disease and renal outcomes among

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

BMJ, 1998
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation is a technique for oxygenating blood outside the body which does away with the need for gas exchange inside the lungs. It is an offshoot of cardiopulmonary bypass technology but does not require the body to be cooled down first and requires minimal heparin ...
