Association between venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation start time and patient outcomes
Introduction: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a complex tool used in times of cardio and pulmonary failures. It began as a tool used in neonates and gradually evolved to adult use in 2003 and increased in popularity during the time of the H1N1 influenza. As this procedure is risky, it …

Economic Evaluation of Anticoagulation with Bivalirudin vs. Heparin during Pediatric Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is an invasive technology used to replace heart and/or lung function in critically ill patients with potential reversible causes of cardiac or respiratory failure. Anticoagulation is required during ECMO to prevent formation of blood clots as the body is …

Design and development of a mechatronic training simulator for adult ECMO
Widespread adoption of Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) in adults has been limited by unfamiliarity with the procedure, including cannulation and safe handling of the ECMO equipment. We present the design and development of a mechatronic training simulator for ECMO that can help medical …

Generating Gaseous Emboli Mimics in an ECMO Flow Phantom
Patients undergoing extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) therapy are prone to developing emboli. These unattached masses of solid blood clots and gaseous air bubbles have the potential to occlude blood vessels and lead to complications such as neurological damage. Existing ultrasound methods …

Implantable electromechanical displacement blood pumps : systematic design and validation methods
… indications, such as cardiopulmonary bypass, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, ventricular assist (bridge to recovery, bridge to transplant, destination therapy) or heart replacement. The REMATCH trial has demonstrated that mechanical circulatory support is an effective alternative to …

Echocardiographic Evaluation of Left Ventricular Recovery After Refractory Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest
… recovery during treatment with venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) are unclear. We performed a descriptive study to evaluate myocardial recovery and changes in parameters of myocardial loading using echocardiography. Methods: We used a retrospective cohort design to …

Optimization of Hybrid Hemodynamics from Mechanical Support Devices in Cardiogenic Shock
… pump; and cardiopulmonary bypass in the form of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. This coupling paradigm allowed us to generate heatmaps of multiple hemodynamic metrics that define the shock and MCS-supported states and a framework by which to appreciate MCS with adjunctive pharmacologic and …

Zur Frage der Aktivierung des Gerinnungs- und Komplementsystemes bei Verwendung von oberflächenmodifizierten Biomaterialien
Extracorporeal blood circulation (ECC) for dialysis, cardiopulmonary bypass and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) induces the activation of different humoral and cellular cascade systems. Systemic anticoagulation with heparin inhibits activation of blood coagulation but increases risk of …

Extrakorporale Membranoxygenierung mit dem DeltaStream-System bei experimentell induziertem akutem Lungenversagen
… severe cases of ARDS/ALI. Therefore, veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) may be a life-saving therapy ensuring a sufficient gas exchange. However, the clinical use of ECMO is limited due to the size of traditionally used centrifugal pumps and associated risks of adverse events. …

Acting in Time: Transport Nurses optimising critically ill patients for transfer to a regional ECMO centre. A Grounded Theory Study
… The Conventional ventilatory support vs Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for Severe Adult Respiratory Failure Trial (CESAR), validated the use of ECMO in the UK for critically ill adults. The H1N1 Influenza A epidemic in 2009, led to four more adult ECMO centres being designated, and …

The use of inhaled nitric oxide to treat persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn in a tertiary public hospital in South Africa from 2010-2014: morbidity, mortality and cost
… newborn (PPHN) because it reduces the need for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). There is insufficient evidence that iNO reduces mortality in the absence of ECMO. Although neonates in some South African public hospitals have access to iNO, ECMO is not available. Oral sildenafil can be …
