This study utilized machine learning algorithms to predict acute brain injury (ABI) in patients on venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO), analyzing data from the
In lung transplantation, the use of intraoperative mechanical support, particularly cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), has evolved over time due to
This systematic review and meta-analysis of 39 studies involving 6409 patients reveal that more than 50% of patients with high-risk pulmonary embolism (HRPE) treated
This study surveys clinicians across seven U.S. hospitals to understand the informed consent process for Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) and ethical complexities in its
This study investigates the impact of different operational modes of an extracorporeal blood pump (CentriMag) on blood flow patterns and the associated risks of
The study developed and validated RIETS, a machine learning-based system using 11 routine clinical and laboratory biomarkers to predict COVID-19 severity upon hospitalization, showing
In a study analyzing 37,473 VV-ECMO patients, machine learning was used to predict acute brain injury (ABI), revealing a 7.1% incidence of ABI and
This study compared prehospital care, in-hospital treatment, and outcomes among out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients before and after the COVID-19 pandemic, revealing that survival
This review evaluates the use of Impella and venoarterial extracorporeal membranous oxygenation (VA-ECMO) as strategies to stabilize patients with post-infarct ventricular septal rupture (PIVSR)
Six months after hospital discharge, patients with severe COVID-19 who received veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-V ECMO) showed persistent impairments in small airway function
This study analyzed the mean cost of inpatient care for COVID-19 patients in the US from March 2020 to March 2022, finding an overall
This technical report details methods for performing dialytic therapies, such as intermittent hemodialysis (iHD) and continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT), safely and effectively through
