OUTCOMES OF VENOARTERIAL EXTRACORPOREAL MEMBRANE OXYGENATION
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.

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.

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]
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 ...

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 ...

Fibroelastic Tissue Ring Causing ECMO Catheter Obstruction
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]
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
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).
