Oxygenator Impact on Voriconazole in Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Circuits
Further evaluations with multiple dose in vitro and in vivo investigations are needed before specific voriconazole dosing recommendations can be made for clinical application with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.
Antithrombin Use During Pediatric Cardiac Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Admission: Insights from A National Database
Together, these results reinforce that antithrombin may not be indicated for all pediatric extracorporeal membrane oxygenation patients.
Pharmacokinetics Alterations in Critically Ill Pediatric Patients on Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation: A Systematic Review
Systematic evaluations of pharmacokinetic alterations of drugs on ECMO that incorporate multidrug opportunistic trials, physiologically based pharmacokinetic modeling, and other methods are necessary for definitive dose recommendations.
Extracorporeal Life Support Organization (ELSO): 2020 Pediatric Respiratory ELSO Guideline
This guideline describes prolonged extracorporeal life support (ECLS) and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), applicable to Pediatric respiratory failure.
Development of the Adult ECMO Specialist Certification Examination
It is anticipated that ECMO facilities and ECMO service providers will incorporate the certification examination as part of their process improvement, safety, and quality assurance plans.
Extracorporeal Life Support in Hemorrhagic Conditions: A Systematic Review
The use of ECLS for temporary circulatory or respiratory support in critical patients with refractory hemorrhagic shock appears feasible considering tailored ECMO management strategies.
Optimization of Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Therapy Using Near-Infrared Spectroscopy to Assess Changes in Peripheral Circulation: A Pilot Study
NIRS for optimizing ECMO therapy may be reliable for monitoring global circulatory status.
Connector Sensors for Permittivity-Based Thrombus Monitoring in Extracorporeal Life Support
The connector sensor is therefore envisioned as an affordable alternative to OCT for real-time permittivity-based monitoring of thrombogenesis at tube–connector interface.
Post Cardiotomy Extra Corporeal Membrane Oxygenation: Australian Cohort Review
Identification of poor prognostic indicators in this study may help inform the development of guidelines for the most appropriate use of this support modality.
Extracorporeal Life Support Organization Coronavirus Disease 2019 Interim Guidelines: A Consensus Document from an International Group of Interdisciplinary Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Providers
These guidelines are not meant to replace sound clinical judgment or specialist consultation but rather to strengthen provision and clinical management of ECMO specifically, in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Is There a “Safe” Suction Pressure in the Venous Line of Extracorporeal Circulation System?
The gaseous cavitation in centrifugal pumps is a phenomenon that appears with decreasing inlet pump pressures.
Risk Factors for Agitation and Hyperactive Delirium in Adult Postcardiotomy Patients with Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Support: an Observational Study
Our results suggest that the prevalence of agitation and hyperactive delirium in postcardiotomy patients with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support is high. In addition, previous stroke and severe mean arterial pressure reduction before extracorporeal membrane oxygenation initiation is predictive of agitation and hyperactive delirium.
