This guideline article argues that extracorporeal life support device testing should follow standardized in-vitro protocols so results can be reproduced, compared across research groups,
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 study explores the efficacy of a novel ECMELLA setup combining veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (va-ECMO) with a micro-axial flow pump in treating cardiogenic
This study examines the use of hybrid extracorporeal life support (ECLS) systems, which incorporate a third cannula for cases where traditional cannulation methods are
This study analyzed adult patients with cardiogenic shock receiving venoarterial ECMO, using data from the ELSO registry between 2009 and 2019. It found that
The study investigates the impact of ECMO and CRRT circuits on meropenem pharmacokinetics, finding minimal extraction by ECMO components but rapid clearance during CRRT,
We propose the creation of a multipurpose circuit that integrates multiple extracorporeal life support (ECLS) functions to cater to diverse medical needs. This innovative
