Mechanical Circulatory Support for Massive Pulmonary Embolism

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Up to 50% of patients with pulmonary embolism (PE) experience hemodynamic instability and approximately 70% of patients who die of PE experience an accelerated cascade of symptoms within the first hours of onset of symptoms, thus necessitating rapid ...

Extra-corporeal membrane oxygenation for refractory cardiogenic shock after adult cardiac surgery:a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]

, 2017
Background - Postcardiotomy cardiogenic shock (PCCS) refractory to inotropic support and intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) occurs rarely but is almost universally fatal without mechanical circulatory support. In this systematic review and meta-analysis we

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.

Amniotic fluid embolism rescued by venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

Critical Care, 2022
Abstract Background Amniotic fluid embolism (AFE) is a rare but often catastrophic complication of pregnancy that leads to cardiopulmonary dysfunction and severe disseminated intravascular coagulopathy (DIC). Although few case reports have reported successful use of venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA ...

Incidence and Risk Factors of Limb Ischaemia in Adult Patients Receiving Veno‐Arterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Nursing in Critical Care, Volume 31, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Limb ischaemia is a serious and potentially limb‐threatening vascular complication associated with veno‐arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V‐A ECMO). However, substantial heterogeneity has been observed in the reported incidence rates and identified risk factors among published studies.

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
