A systematic review of 11 randomized trials found no overall survival or neurologic benefit from early cooling after cardiac arrest. Actual target achievement was
An INCEPTION trial-based model projected ECPR costs and quality-adjusted survival over 20 years. The reported ICER was €242,122 per QALY, with a 46% probability
This study introduces the Korean Acute Myocarditis (KAM) score, a predictive model for assessing the likelihood of veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) use in
This study examines the incidence and predictors of bleeding and thrombosis in patients treated with extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest due
The Jena Method introduces a revolutionary approach to deploying extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) rapidly in emergency situations, without needing a perfusionist on hand. By
This article outlines an updated protocol for a systematic review focused on evaluating the effects of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and therapeutic hypothermia on
This study from the Chinese Extracorporeal Life Support (CSECLS) registry explored the effectiveness of using an intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) alongside venoarterial extracorporeal membrane
This study evaluates the effects of mild hypercapnia compared to normocapnia on cerebral blood flow and metabolism in porcine models post-cardiac arrest, with and
This observational study focused on identifying factors influencing neurological outcomes and disability in patients receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) after cardiac arrest, either in-hospital
This study investigates the impact of the time from collapse to the start of CPR (NFT) and from the start of CPR to
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
The abstract discusses the establishment of an Extracorporeal Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (ECPR) program in a high-volume extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) center, emphasizing patient selection and
