– Of 131 VA ECMO patients, there were 36 aortic (27.5%), 16 axillary (12.2%), and 79 femoral (60.3%) cannulations. Other than a lower mean age with femoral cannulations (53.9 ± 13.9 yr) versus aortic (60.3 ± 12.2 yr) and axillary (59.8 ± 12.4 yr) (p=0.032), baseline ...

No statistical differences were found between peripheral and central VA-ECMO with regard to cerebrovascular events, limb complications, or sepsis rates. Peripheral cannulation was associated with a significant reduction in the risk of bleeding (p= 0.02), continuous venovenous hemofiltration (p= 0.03),...
VA ECMO is the most common mode of support in pediatric respiratory failure patients. Although no significant difference in CNS injury was noted between carotid and femoral artery cannulation, the odds of injury were significantly higher than VV support....
