Abstract This study investigates the prevalence and risk factors associated with venous thrombotic events in patients receiving (ECMO) support. Systematic review and meta-analysis of case-control and cohort studies. PubMed, Cochrane..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Background:  Patients maintained on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) often require systemic anticoagulation to prevent circuit clotting and systemic thromboembolic complications. The optimal intensity of anticoagulation to balance the risk..
