Malignant Arrhythmia and Cardiac Arrest Following Intentional Yew Tree Leaf Ingestion Salvaged by VA‐ECMO

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 3, March 2025.
ABSTRACT This case emphasizes the role of multidisciplinary involvement and early decision‐making in yew tree (Taxus baccata) poisoning. Taxus baccata contains taxine alkaloids that predispose to malignant arrhythmia. Here, we present a case of Taxus baccata toxicity presenting with refractory cardiac arrest, salvaged ultimately by VA‐ECMO.

Jesaconitine monitoring in a case of severe aconitum poisoning with torsade de pointes treated via extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

Acute Medicine &Surgery, Volume 12, Issue 1, January/December 2025.
A male in his 20s with suicidal aconite root ingestion developed refractory TdP, requiring ECMO. His arrhythmia resolved as jesaconitine levels decreased below 1 ng/mL. This case highlights the correlation between jesaconitine concentration and clinical symptoms, suggesting its potential use in guiding treatment for severe Aconitum poisoning.

Management considerations of massive hemoptysis while on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. [PDF]

, 2016
BACKGROUND: Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-A ECMO) is a life-saving procedure in patients with both respiratory and cardiac failure. Bleeding complications are common since patients must be maintained on anticoagulation.
