The role of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in thoracic surgery—a narrative review
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background and Objective: Thoracic surgical patients provide unique challenges which can make maintaining adequate ventilation difficult or impossible. Despite advances in anaesthetic technique there are situations where other methods must be employed. The aim of this review is to an overview extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) how it utilised thoracic patients.

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has been used more extensively since it became known as a potential bridge therapy, in patients with severe respiratory failure even under optimum conventional mechanical ventilator support, for further definite therapy. In the area of thoracic surgery, ECMO may have already become a useful lifesaving tool but studies on this treatment method remain sc...

The H1N1 flu pandemic led to a wider use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), proving its power in hypoxemic emergencies. The results obtained during this pandemic, more than any randomized trial, led to the worldwide acceptance of the use of membrane lungs. Moreover, as centers that applied this technique as rescue therapy for refractory hypoxemia recognized its strength and limited ...

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a modified form of cardiopulmonary bypass. Although early trials were plagued by severe bleeding and high rates of death, subsequent experience with neonates found good survival, and ECMO became an important tool in the care of critically ill infants with respiratory failure. Since the 1980s, expansion to other groups (children, patients with cardia...

Cerebral perfusion temperatures during antegrade cerebral perfusion and their affect on cerebral metabolism and neurological outcomes are evaluated in this study. Young piglets were subjected to a period of hypothermic circulatory arrest at 20°C using alphastat pH management. Four study groups were then assigned to differing temperatures of selective cerebral perfusion. Lower perfusion temperat...
متن کاملExtracorporeal membrane oxygenation
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a technique that involves oxygenation of blood outside the body, and provides support to selected patients with severe respiratory or cardiac failure. The two major ECMO modalities are venoarterial and venovenous. Data from several randomised trials support the use of ECMO in neonatal respiratory failure, and a recent randomised controlled trial of ...
