Abstract Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation provides cardiorespiratory support to patients in cardiogenic shock. This comes at the cost of increased left ventricle (LV) afterload that can be partly ascribed to retrograde..

Prognosis of Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation in Mixed, Cardiogenic and Septic Shock
Abstract Mixed cardiogenic-septic shock (MS), defined as the combination of cardiogenic (CS) and septic (SS) shock, is often encountered in cardiac intensive care units. Herein, the authors compared the impact of..
Lee mas
Abstract Refractory cardiogenic shock is increasingly being treated with veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-A ECMO), without definitive proof of improved clinical outcomes. Recently, pulsatile V-A ECMO has been developed to address some of the..

Abstract Background It is currently unclear if active left ventricular (LV) unloading should be used as a primary treatment strategy or as a bailout in patients with cardiogenic shock (CS)..
Lee mas
Abstract Background The mortality rate for a patient with a refractory cardiogenic shock on venoarterial (VA) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) remains high, and hyperoxia might worsen this prognosis. The objective..

Abstract Background: Exposure to hyperoxia, a high arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2), may be associated with worse outcomes in patients receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenator (ECMO) support. We examined hyperoxia in..

Abstract Background High-risk patients with coronary heart disease who develop acute myocardial infarction (AMI) have severe coronary lesions. If severe complications occur, such as malignant ventricular arrhythmia, cardiogenic shock, and..

Abstract Despite venovenous or venoarterial (ECMO) being increasingly used in patients with severe syndrome, severe , and refractory cardiac arrest, mortality rates still remain high mainly because of the severity..
Lee mas
Abstract Background Outcomes of patients requiring venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) vary greatly by etiology, but large studies that incorporate the spectrum of shock supported with ECMO are rare. Objectives..

Abstract Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA ECMO) is a form of temporary mechanical circulatory support and simultaneous extracorporeal gas exchange for acute cardiorespiratory failure, including refractory cardiogenic shock (CS) and..

Abstract Myocardial infarction (MI) is typically followed by numerous lethal complications. One such complication is left ventricular free wall rupture (LVFWR). We present the case of a middle-aged hypertensive patient..

Abstract VA-ECMO is commonly used for patients in cardiogenic shock (CS) or refractory cardiac arrest (CA) undergoing PCI for ACS. In this setting at high risk of both thrombotic and..

Abstract Purpose: Veno‑arterial (VA) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) can be used to restore organ perfusionin patients with cardiogenic shock until native heart recovery occurs. It may be challenging, however, to..

Abstract Aims Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) is currently one of the most used devices in refractory cardiogenic shock. However, there is a lack of evidence on how to set..

Abstract In patients in cardiogenic shock (CS), mechanical circulatory support (MCS) may improve systemic perfusion without increasing myocardial work. Restoration of oxygen delivery with reduced myocardial oxygen demand favors myocardial..
