Abstract Venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation is the most commonly used mode of support in pre-lung transplant recipients. In patients who experience right ventricular dysfunction, venopulmonary ECMO is an excellent option..
Lire la suiteAbstract Introduction The Protek Duo (PtD) dual lumen, single cannula was developed as a percutaneous system for temporary mechanical support, inserted through the internal jugular vein (IJ) for both atrial..
Lire la suiteTreatment strategies for acute respiratory distress syndrome have dramatically improved in recent years. Nevertheless, despite optimization of ventilator parameters, mortality remains high. Venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) allows the elimination..
Lire la suiteAbstract This chapter provides an in-depth analysis of the ProtekDuo® (LivaNova, London) dual-lumen cannula’s application in extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), focusing on the procedural techniques of cannulation, weaning, and decannulation...
Lire la suiteAbstract National trends show rapid increases in the use of mechanical circulatory support devices (MCSD) over the last 20 years. While current literature has not proven a mortality benefit in..
Lire la suiteAbstract This article describes a case study where a patient with ProtekDuo + oxygenator and Impella CP (PROpella) in biventricular failure and cardiogenic shock was reconfigured to venopulmonary-arterial (VP-A) extracorporeal..
Lire la suiteAbstract The ProtekDuo® is a dual lumen cannula that can be used in numerous configurations to treat cardiogenic shock and hypotension. Its default function is as a temporary percutaneous right..
Lire la suiteAbstract Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is used in cases of severe respiratory failure refractory to medical management. Use of ECMO is increasing, along with new cannulation strategies including oxygenated right..
Lire la suiteAbstract Objective: Assessment of the results of the ProtekDuo cannula applied for dedicated right ventricular support with oxygenator in ARDS secondary to COVID-19. Methods: Systematic literature search in NHS library,..
Lire la suiteAbstract Introduction Acute right ventricular failure (aRVF) is associated with high mortality and morbidity. Mechanical circulatory support (MCS) may be considered as an advanced treatment option. The ProtekDuo is a..
Lire la suiteAbstract Introduction: Use of the ProtekDuo cannula has been described for right ventricular assist devices (RVADs) and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) systems. Case report: We describe remote cannulation and transport of two..
Lire la suiteAbstract Objective: Assessment of the results of the ProtekDuo cannula applied for dedicated right ventricular support with oxygenator in ARDS secondary to COVID-19. Methods: Systematic literature search in NHS library,..
Lire la suiteAbstract Objective: The ProtekDuo with oxygenator mimics veno-venous (V-V) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in veno-pulmonary (V-P) configuration. We have recently developed a new configuration by utilizing a 25 Fr multistage femoral..
Lire la suiteAbstract The ProtekDuo, single site dual lumen cannula can be used in a multitude of configurations. In the medical literature, the ProtekDuo is described as right ventricular assist device (RVAD),..
Lire la suiteAbstract Purpose To determine if a cannulation method for venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-V ECMO) is related to patient outcome. Methods A retrospective, multicenter study of adult patients (≥18 years old)..
Lire la suiteAbstract We present a case of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) secondary to COVID-19 who required venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-V ECMO). Initially, a right ventricular assist device (RVAD), the..
Lire la suiteAbstract Temporary mechanical circulatory support can be delivered through a variety of techniques, including percutaneous left ventricular assist devices, surgically implanted rotary pumps, and veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. However, limitations..
Lire la suiteAbstract Recently, a percutaneous right ventricular assist device (RVAD) called the TandemLife Protek Duo (TPD; TandemLife, Pittsburgh, PA) has been introduced. The Protek Duo (TPD) is a temporary RVAD placed via the right..
Lire la suiteAbstract A previously healthy, middle-aged patient presented with rapidly increasing shortness of breath despite empirical antibiotic treatment for presumed pneumonia. A computed tomographic image of the chest was notable for..
