Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) Strategies under Hemodynamic Support for Cardiogenic Shock: A Single-Center Experience with Two Patients

Case Reports in Cardiology, 2020
We describe two cases of profound cardiogenic shock complicating acute myocardial infarction (CSAMI) requiring mechanical circulatory support (MCS) with venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) allowing complex, high-risk, and staged ...

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for acute pulmonary embolism after postoperative craniocerebral trauma: a case report

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
IntroductionMassive pulmonary embolism (PE) is a life-threatening complication of major surgery with a mortality rate of up to 50%. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is primarily used for respiratory and circulatory support.

Fungal infections and antifungal prophylaxis in pediatric cardiac extracorporeal life support [PDF]

, 2012
ObjectiveInfections acquired by children during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) increase mortality. Our aim was to evaluate the effectiveness of prophylactic fluconazole on the incidence of fungal infections and to assess whether hospital ...

Secondary sclerosing cholangitis in patients suffering cardiogenic shock

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 3, Page 2239-2244, June 2025.
Abstract Aims Cardiogenic shock (CS) patients suffer from severe organ hypoperfusion, yet the incidence of secondary sclerosing cholangitis in critically ill patients (SSC‐CIP) in CS is poorly described. Given the limited evidence and severity of this syndrome, we aimed to further investigate SSC‐CIP in the context of CS.

Outcomes of Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Plus Intra‐Aortic Balloon Pumping for Treatment of Acute Myocardial Infarction Complicated by Cardiogenic Shock

Journal of the American Heart Association : Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2022
Background Clinical outcomes of acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock remain poor with high in‐hospital mortality. Veno‐arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA‐ECMO) has been widely used for patients with acute myocardial ...

Acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock: an algorithm based ECMO program can improve clinical outcomes. [PDF]

, 2016
Objective: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in our institution resulted in near total mortality prior to the establishment of an algorithm-based program in July 2010. We hypothesized that an algorithm based ECMO program improves the outcome of

Clinical and Preclinical Evidence on a Novel Percutaneous Pulsatile Ventricular Assist Device (PulseCath): Protocol for a Scoping Review

Health Science Reports, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Temporary mechanical circulatory support (tMCS) devices play a crucial role in improving survival for patients with hemodynamic instability by providing cardiac assistance, and may serve as either a bridge to recovery or destination therapy.

Current challenges in lung transplantation

Journal of Internal Medicine, Volume 297, Issue 4, Page 355-365, April 2025.
Abstract Lung transplantation remains the definitive treatment for end‐stage lung disease, but several critical challenges persist. Key issues include the limited availability of donor organs, ongoing debates over optimal preservation methods, and the controversy surrounding the best intraoperative support systems.

Axillary Approach for Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Cannulation

Cureus, 2020
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support (ECMO) is a form of mechanical circulatory support that is used in patients with severe dysfunction of heart or lung or both. Depending on whether it is venovenous or venoarterial support, it can temporarily substitute for circulation and ventilation while the underlying cause is addressed.
