Veno-venousCannulationBackground Following the 2009 H1N1 Influenza pandemic, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) emerged as a viable alternative in selected, severe cases of ARDS. Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is a major public health problem. Average medical costs for ARDS survivors...
Here we present a synopsis of the challenges, considerations, and potential controversies regarding veno-venous ECMO that will be of benefit to anesthesiologists, surgeons, and intensivists, especially those newly confronted with care of the ECMO patient. We outline a number of points related to ECM...
Table 1. Characteristics of patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome associated with refractory COVID-19 before venovenous ECMO cannulation including demographics, comorbidities, and clinical course before initiation of ECMO Median age, y (IQR) 51 (40-59) Male sex, n (%) 27/37 (...

A combination of prone positioning (PP) and venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO) is safe, feasible, and associated with potentially improved survival for severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). However, whether ARDS patients, especially non-COVID-19 patients, placed in ...
Prognostic factors associated with mortality among patients receiving venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for COVID-19: a systematic review and meta-analysis The Lancet Respiratory Medicine, Volume 11, Issue 3, March 2023, Pages 235-244 Alexandre Tran, Shannon M Fernando, Bram Rochwerg, Ry...
venovenousBackground: Venovenous (VV) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) applied through a single site with a bicaval dual-lumen (BCDL) catheter is a growing method of treatment of acute respiratory failure, thus animal models for research purposes are needed. We describe a rapid ...
The use of double lumen cannula for veno-venous ECMO in trauma patients with ARDS The use of a double lumen cannula for veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (v.v. ECMO) offers several advantages such as cannulation with only o... M Gothner,D Buchwald,JT Strauch,... - 《Scandin...
Extracorporeal circulation (ECMO) in neonatal respiratory failure. Sixteen moribund newborn infants with respiratory failure were treated with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for 1 to 8 days. Cannulation via the... RH Bartlett,AB Gazzaniga,RF Huxtable,... - 《Journal of Thoracic ...
Despite the increasing use of venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) to treat severe respiratory failure, recirculation remains a common complication that may result in severe hypoxemia and end-organ damage. The present review, therefore, examines updated evidence for the causes, ...
