We present the cannulation technique for venopulmonary extracorporeal membrane oxygenation using the ProtekDuo dual-lumen cannula in a patient who, after a bilateral orthotopic lung transplant and coronavirus disease 2019 infection,..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Purpose: Patients receiving venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA‑ECMO) frequently develop arte‑rial hyperoxaemia, which may be harmful. However, lower oxygen saturation targets may also lead to harmful episodes of hypoxaemia...

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Data on perioperative extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in liver transplantation (LT) are scarce. ECMO has been used preoperatively, intraoperatively, and postoperatively for a variety of indications at our center...

Abstract Endothelial injury is usually considered as a major com-ponent of the systemic inflammatory response observed during veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygena-tion (VA-ECMO) support [1, 2]. Yet, few data are avail-able..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Introduction The primary aim was to describe the outcome, the compliance with inclusion criteria and the characteristics of patients who underwent extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a high-risk and low-volume life support with increasing clinical study. However, heterogenous outcome definitions impede data assimilation into evidence to guide practice. The Academic..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Heart transplantation and left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) have emerged as crucial interventions for end-stage heart failure, dramatically improving patient outcomes. This narrative review examines their historical context, indications,..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Aims Current data are insufficient for the leading resuscitation societies to advise on the use of extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) for pediatric out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). The aim of..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Aims This study explores the evolution of organ donation from patients treated with extracorporeal-cardiopulmonary-resuscitation (ECPR) for refractory out-of-hospital-cardiac-arrest (OHCA) and evaluates the public health benefits of a mature ECPR..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Objectives To understand if red blood cell (RBC) transfusions are independently associated with a risk of mortality, prolonged , or infectious, cardiac, or renal morbid outcomes. Design A retrospective review...

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation are critical tools in contemporary cardiac surgery and intensive care, respectively. While these techniques share similar components, their application contexts differ,..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Extracorporeal life support (ECLS) therapy is increasingly being used to support children with refractory cardiorespiratory failure, but its use is occasionally associated with complications. Neonatal aortic dissection in association..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Background Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) is a life support device for patients with severe heart and/or lung failure. Emergency situations require immediate ECMO response. Primed circuits have become a..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is used in severe cardiorespiratory failure refractory to conventional management, often as a bridge to recovery, long-term support, or transplant. However, some patients might not..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Mass spectrometry-based proteomics is a sophisticated identification tool specializing in portraying protein dynamics at a molecular level. Proteomics provides biologists with a snapshot of context-dependent protein and proteoform expression,..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Cardiovascular diseases persist as a leading cause of mortality and morbidity, despite significant advances in diagnostic and surgical approaches. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) represents a branch of fluid mechanics..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Background Packed red blood cell (pRBC) transfusion is a relatively safe and mainstay treatment commonly used in cardiac surgical patients. However, there is limited evidence on clinical effects of..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Controversy has emerged around how to treat patients who were placed on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) expecting recovery, organ transplant, or durable device, but who can no longer be..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Background Hypertension is the leading risk factor for subclinical target-organ damage (TOD) and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Little is known about the relationship between different pressure measures and subclinical TOD,..

Abstract Objectives To compare the incidence of delirium and early (at 1 week)  (POCD) between propofol-based  (TIVA) and volatile anesthesia with  in adult patients undergoing elective  (CABG) with  (CPB). Design This was a prospective randomized..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Purpose To assess the association between fluctuations of arterial carbon dioxide early after start of  (ECMO) with  (ICH) or  (IS). Materials and methods This single-center retrospective study included patients who required ECMO..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Perioperative cardiac arrest (POCA) is a catastrophic complication that requires immediate recognition and correction of the underlying cause to improve patient outcomes. While the hypoxia, hypovolemia, hydrogen ions (acidosis),..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Objective To investigate whether  is impaired after neonatal cardiac surgery and whether changes in  metrics are associated with different  or the incidence of postoperative neurologic events. Methods This is a retrospective observational..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Patients on left ventricular assist devices (LVAD) are prone to excessive hemostasis disturbances due to permanent contact of artificial pump surfaces with blood components. We aimed to investigate if..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract The management of cardiogenic shock is an ongoing challenge. Despite all efforts and tremendous use of resources, mortality remains high. Whilst reversing the underlying cause, restoring/maintaining organ perfusion and..
