Applying DanGer Shock Eligibility Criteria to a Real‐World Cohort of Cardiogenic Shock Patients
ABSTRACT Background The DanGer Shock trial investigated the effects of adding a microaxial flow pump to guideline‐recommended therapy in patients with ST‐elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI)‐related cardiogenic shock (CS), finding a lower all‐cause mortality at 180 days in the intervention group.

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation use in open thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm repair
Coagulopathy and hypothermia during thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm (TAAA) repair using cardiopulmonary bypass can contribute significantly to the morbidity of the operation. We used a novel method of venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for

Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for support during whole lung lavage for pulmonary alveolar proteinosis. [PDF]
INTRODUCTION ECMO as support during whole lung lavage (WLL) for pulmonary alveolar proteinosis is reserved for severe cases where oxygenation is inadequate to support the patient using the ventilator alone.

Hemolysis and Nonhemorrhagic Stroke During Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation [PDF]
Hemolysis, even at low levels, activates platelets to create a prothrombotic state and is common during mechanical circulatory support. We examined the association of low-level hemolysis (LLH) and nonhemorrhagic stroke during venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA ECMO) support.A single-center retrospective review of all adult patients ...

Awake venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for refractory cardiogenic shock
Abstract Background Venoarterial-extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) is currently one of the first-line therapies for refractory cardiogenic shock (CS), but its applicability is undermined by the high morbidity associated with its complications, especially those related to mechanical ...

Abstract Background Anticoagulation is a key measure during venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA‐ECMO) maintenance therapy. Nafamostat mesylate (NM) has emerged as a potential alternative to heparin. We assessed the value of anticoagulation with NM during VA‐ECMO therapy.

Refractory vasodilatory shock secondary to metformin overdose supported with VA ECMO
Metformin overdose may result in vasodilatory shock, lactic acidosis and death. Hemodialysis is an effective means of extracorporeal elimination, but may be insufficient in the shock setting.
