Trouble shooting the extracorporeal membrane oxygenator circuit and patient.
Patients requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) often become totally dependent on the mechanical life support. The Extracorporeal Life Support Organization (ELSO) reports 2486 incidents of mechanical complications in 5905 ECMO supports. To help decrease the number of mechanical complications, an active quality assurance program was initiated at our institution. This resulted in...
متن کاملContemporary Oxygenator Design Relative to Hemolysis.
Hemolysis is a well-known phenomenon during cardiovascular surgery and generally attributed to cardiopulmonary bypass, particularly when using high-resistant oxygenators. This study aimed at investigating whether transoxygenator pressure drop can be considered an independent factor of hemolysis. Additionally, intraoxygenator blood distribution and shear stress were assessed. A low-resistant (LR...
متن کاملAnticoagulation Therapy during Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenator Support in Pediatric Patients
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a salvage therapy for critically ill patients. Although ECMO is becoming more common, hemorrhagic and thromboembolic complications remain the major causes of death in patients undergoing ECMO treatments. These complications commence upon blood contact with artificial surfaces of the circuit, blood pump, and oxygenator system. Therefore, anticoagulat...
متن کاملExperiences of Tracheal Procedure Assisted by Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenator
We report on the application of a venovenous type extracorporeal membrane oxygenator (ECMO) in high-risk tracheal procedures in six cases consisting of five patients with tracheal stenosis. An ECMO should be helpful for preventing respiratory emergency during a tracheal procedure.
متن کاملHemolysis-Associated Nitric Oxide Dysregulation during Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation.
Acute intravascular hemolysis during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) leads to increased levels of cell-free hemoglobin (FHb). Our aim was to investigate whether FHb levels are associated with nitric oxide (NO) consumption and clinical outcomes. A prospective observational study was performed involving pediatric patients on ECMO. Blood samples were collected before, during, and after ...
