A UK case report describes a 36-year-old woman with fulminant myocarditis who survived refractory cardiac arrest after ECPR, central biventricular assist-device support, and subsequent
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
Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) can achieve survival approaching 30% for selected patients with refractory out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, but success depends on the entire system
This geospatial cross-sectional study examined how access to pediatric extracorporeal membrane oxygenation varies across U.S. states and Pediatric Emergency Referral Regions. Researchers identified 258
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
This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluates the efficacy of left-ventricular (LV) unloading with Impella, compared to standard venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO), during extracorporeal
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), a life-saving technology for patients with cardiorespiratory failure unresponsive to standard treatments, has seen increased global use since the H1N1
Pediatric in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) occurs in 1-6% of pediatric ICU admissions, with survival rates improving from 9% to 35% over the past 25
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
