Role of Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation In COVID-19: A Systematic Review
Our study highlights the paucity of evidence and the need for further data to consolidate the efficacy of ECMO in improving patient outcomes.

Extracorporeal (EC) carbon dioxide (CO(2)) removal (ECCO(2)R) may be a powerful alternative to ventilation, possibly avoiding the need for mechanical ventilation and endotracheal intubation. We previously reported how an infusion of lactic acid before a membrane lung (ML) effectively enhances ECCO(2)R. We evaluated an innovative ECCO(2)R technique based on ventilation of acidified dialysate.
We report the clinical course of a female child with a normal karyotype and chromosomal microarray who presented as an infant with clinical findings consistent with congenital polyvalvular disease (CPVD).
