Recurrent Myopericarditis and Fulminant Cardiogenic Shock Due to Autoimmune Polyglandular Syndrome 2
A 34-year-old man presented with acute pericarditis and a small pericardial effusion but rapidly decompensated into cardiac tamponade and fulminant cardiogenic shock, requiring venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation cannulation.

Arterial Carbon Dioxide and Acute Brain Injury in Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation
Acute brain injury (ABI) occurs frequently in patients receiving venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO). We examined the association between peri-cannulation arterial carbon dioxide tension (PaCO2) and ABI with granular blood gas data.

Regional outbreak of parvovirus B19 acute myocarditis in preschool children
We recently came across an outbreak of parvovirus B19 related acute myocarditis in preschool children in a specific region in northern Greece. The children exhibited serious morbidity and mortality. All children had very poor left ventricular ejection fraction and required inotropic intensive care unit support.

Time course, factors related to, and prognostic impact of venoarterial extracorporeal membrane flow in cardiogenic shock [PDF]
Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) is currently one of the most used devices in refractory cardiogenic shock. However, there is a lack of evidence on how to set the 'optimal' flow.

Extracorporeal Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation [PDF]
Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) is a method of resuscitation in which venoarterial (VA) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO) is initiated during refractory cardiac arrest. ECPR promises to enhance outcomes after cardiac arrest by
