Clinical use of venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.
With advances in mechanical circulation, venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation has become an established technique to provide cardiopulmonary support for patients with cardiovascular collapse. This article reviews the physiological principles of such extracorporeal technique and its interaction with the native heart. Practical aspects including equipment, patient selection, and commo...
متن کاملPercutaneous Cannulation in Predominantly Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation by Intensivists.
Critical Care Medicine www.ccmjournal.org e595 The authors reply: The letter by Burrell et al (1) describing the percutaneous cannulation experience by intensivists at Alfred Hospital provides important information for intensivists involved in extracorporeal life support (ECLS) programs and nicely complements our reported experience (2). Our ECLS program has historically provided predominantly ...
متن کاملMonitoring of the Adult Patient on Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation
Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA ECMO) provides mechanical support to the patient with cardiac or cardiopulmonary failure. This paper reviews the physiology of VA ECMO including the determinants of ECMO flow and gas exchange. The efficacy of this therapy may be determined by assessing patient hemodynamics and device flow, overall gas exchange support, markers of adequate oxy...
متن کاملVariability in End-Organ Perfusion with Femoral-Femoral Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation: Aortographic Evidence.
In femoral-femoral venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO), the outflow of oxygenated blood from the circuit enters the aorta in retrograde fashion. As a result, variability in end-organ oxygenation (e.g., cerebral vs. splanchnic) may arise-particularly, when the heart is unable to contribute forward flow. We present the case of a 74-year-old man supported by femoral-femoral ...
متن کاملBeriberi Induced Cardiomyopathy Requiring Salvage Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation
Beriberi refers to a constellation of symptoms caused primarily by thiamine (vitamin B1) deficiency. An acute and fulminant presentation of this rare condition has been described in the literature as "Shoshin" beriberi which is characterized by catastrophic cardiovascular collapse. Early recognition and treatment lead to dramatic improvements of symptoms. We present a case of thiamine deficienc...
