OUTCOMES OF VENOARTERIAL EXTRACORPOREAL MEMBRANE OXYGENATION

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 2016
Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA ECMO) can provide circulatory support with or without gas exchange. We performed a retrospective analysis of patients who were supported with VA ECMO to analyze outcomes based on the etiology of cardiogenic shock.

Acute brain injury risk prediction models in venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation patients with tree-based machine learning: An Extracorporeal Life Support Organization Registry analysisCentral MessagePerspective

open access: yesJTCVS Open
Objective: We aimed to determine if machine learning can predict acute brain injury and to identify modifiable risk factors for acute brain injury in patients receiving venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.

The Association of Oxygenation, Carbon Dioxide Removal, and Mechanical Ventilation Practices on Survival During Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2021
Introduction: Oxygenation and carbon dioxide removal during venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA ECMO) depend on a complex interplay of ECMO blood and gas flows, native lung and cardiac function as well as the mechanical ventilation ...

Coxsackie B2 Virus Infection Causing Multiorgan Failure and Cardiogenic Shock in a 42-Year-Old Man [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Infections from coxsackie B2 viruses often cause viral myocarditis and, only rarely, multisystem organ impairment. We present the unusual case of a 42-year-old man in whom coxsackie B2 virus infection caused multiorgan infection, necessitating distal ...

Left Ventricular Unloading Increases the Coronary Collateral Flow Index Before Reperfusion and Reduces Infarct Size in a Swine Model of Acute Myocardial Infarction

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background Unloading the left ventricle and delaying reperfusion reduces infarct size in preclinical models of acute myocardial infarction. We hypothesized that a potential explanation for this effect is that left ventricular (LV) unloading before ...

Protected complex percutaneous coronary intervention and transcatheter aortic valve replacement using extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in a high-risk frail patient: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2020
Background Transcatheter aortic valve replacement has become a routine procedure for patients with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis at increased surgical risk. Not much is known about using prophylactic support with venoarterial extracorporeal membrane

Fibroelastic Tissue Ring Causing ECMO Catheter Obstruction

open access: yesJACC: Case Reports, 2021
The Avalon Elite catheter (Maquet Cardiopulmonary, Rastatt, Germany) is a bicaval catheter for single-site cannulation that can be used in the initiation of venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) or as a transition from venoarterial ECMO ...

Extracorporeal life support for primary graft dysfunction after heart transplantation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
OBJECTIVES Survival after heart transplantation is steadily improving but primary graft dysfunction (PGD) is still a leading cause of death. Medical management seems useful in mild or moderate PGD, whereas extracorporeal life support (ECLS) could be ...

Predicting mortality after postcardiotomy venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

open access: yesAnnals of Translational Medicine, 2019
Cardiogenic shock occurring after adult cardiac surgery is often refractory to inotropic therapy and intra-aortic balloon pump mechanical support. In this scenario, venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) provides both circulatory and respiratory support, allowing cardiopulmonary recovery (1).
