Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) provides temporary cardiac
and respiratory support and has emerged as an established salvage intervention for patients …

OBJECTIVES: Refractory postcardiotomy cardiogenic shock complicating cardiac surgery
yields nearly 100% mortality when untreated. Use of venoarterial extracorporeal membrane …

During veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO), the increase of left

intraoperatively or postoperatively based on indications, settings, patient profile, and …

Background Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) use in the United States occurs
often in cardiothoracic ICUs (CTICU). It is unknown how it varies across ICU types. Methods …

Pediatric extracorporeal membrane oxygenation is an increasingly ultilized, life-saving
technology with high mortality and morbidity. A complex technology employed urgently or …

Aims Because reported mortality on veno‐arterial (V‐A) extracorporeal life support (ECLS)
substantially varies between centres, the aim of the current analysis was to assess the …
