Editor’s Note:

Hi Guys,

I got this letter from a Filipino  perfusionist via FaceBook.  If any of you have any engineering insights into the mechanics of increasing Oxygenator surface area for improving O2/CO2 exchange , can you send replies to Kevin Tabamo’s FB page?

Thanks ! = = 🙂

Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Network Organisation and Clinical Outcomes During the COVID-19 Pandemic in Greater Paris, France: A Multicentre Cohort Study

Beyond associations with similar factors to those reported on ECMO for non-COVID-19 ARDS, 90-day survival among ECMO-assisted patients with COVID-19 was strongly associated with a centre's experience in venovenous ECMO during the previous year. Early ECMO management in centres with a high venovenous ECMO case volume should be advocated, by applying centralisation and regulation of ECMO indications, which should also help to prevent a shortage of resources.
