This multicenter study analyzed 5,492 patients with cardiogenic shock (CS) treated with venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO). Among them, 15.1% received intra-aortic balloon pump
This study investigates the clinical outcomes of two cannulation strategies—femoral artery (FA) cannulation and combined femoral and axillary artery (FA+AA) cannulation—in patients receiving veno-arterial
This study investigates thromboembolic complications in patients undergoing venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) with continuous versus interrupted anticoagulation. Data from 346 patients across three
This study investigated the extraction of ketamine and dexmedetomidine by extracorporeal life support (ECLS) circuits such as ECMO and CRRT. Using an ex-vivo system,
This study explores the outcomes of pediatric patients with status asthmaticus (SA) who received either inhaled volatile anesthetics (IVA), extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), or
In the competitive healthcare industry, certification in blood management or ECMO through the AmSECT International Board of Blood Management (IBBM) can significantly elevate your
This observational cohort study explores the risk factors associated with elective and emergency oxygenator exchanges during veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-V ECMO). Analyzing 45
This study compares the accuracy of clinician predictions versus established prognostic scores in determining survival to hospital discharge for patients on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation
This study investigates the fluid volume transfused to pediatric ECMO patients via pressure monitoring circuits, an area currently lacking published data or guidelines. Using
This study compared clinician predictions of survival to hospital discharge versus established ECMO survival prediction scores (RESP and SAVE). Conducted from January 2020 to
This study investigates the long-term outcomes of acute kidney disease (AKD) in patients undergoing extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). From a dataset of 395 patients,
