Thrombocytopenia and platelet dysfunction are common in ECMO patients, regardless the type of ECMO mode. The underlying mechanisms are multifactorial, and understanding and management are still limited. Further research to design appropriate strategies and protocols for its monitoring, management, or prevention should be matter of thorough investigations.
According to our results, CPB and ACC time are not associated with PMV or prolonged hospital LOS.
Nonlinear complexity measures computed from beat-to-beat arterial BP dynamics have shown associations with standard cardiac surgical risk indices. They reflect the physiological adaptability of a system and has been proposed as dynamical biomarkers of overall health status.
