Percutaneous Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation for Graft Dysfunction after Heart Transplantation
BACKGROUND We evaluated the safety and efficacy of percutaneous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in patients with primary graft dysfunction after heart transplantation. METHODS Of 65 patients (44 males and 21 females) who underwent heart transplantation from January 2006 to December 2012, 13 patients (group I) needed peripheral ECMO support due to difficulty in weaning from cardiopu...
متن کاملOutcome of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for early primary graft failure after pediatric heart transplantation.
OBJECTIVES We sought to analyze the indications and outcome of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for early primary graft failure and determine its impact on long-term graft function and rejection risk. BACKGROUND Early post-operative graft failure requiring ECMO can complicate heart transplantation. METHODS A retrospective review of all children requiring ECMO in the early period a...
متن کاملInstitutional experience with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in lung transplantation.
BACKGROUND Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is currently accepted in lung transplantation either to bridge patients to transplantation or to treat postoperatively arising severe primary graft failure. Based on promising initial experiences we have since 2001 implemented ECMO as the standard of intraoperative extracorporeal support in lung transplantation (LuTX) patients with haemodyna...
متن کاملExtracorporeal membrane oxygenation: successful bridge to pediatric heart transplantation.
Since the year 2000, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support for cardiac failure has been employed in the post operative care of children at the Centro Cardiovascular de Puerto Rico y el Caribe. Our experience with the application of ECMO had been limited to circulatory support after repair of congenital cardiac lesions. We report the first case in Puerto Rico where ECMO was used suc...
متن کاملLung transplantation following 107 days of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.
Severe adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is associated with failure to maintain adequate gas exchange. There is increasing success using extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for respiratory failure; the longest reported surviving patient has been supported by ECMO for 57 days. At best about 50% wean from ECMO and should weaning fail their course is fatal. ECMO is generally consid...
