Read MoreAbstract Introduction: Retrograde autologous priming (RAP) of the cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) circuit could reduce the degree of haemodilution associated with priming with acellular solutions. However, there is no strong evidence to..
Read MoreAbstract Introduction Peripheral veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA ECMO) creates a retrograde flow along the aorta competing with the left ventricle (LV) in the so-called ‘mixing zone’ (MZ). Detecting it..

Read MoreAbstract Objectives: Data about inhospital outcomes in bleeding complications during extracorporeal life support (ECLS) have been poorly investigated. Design: Retrospective observational study. Setting: Patients reported in Extracorporeal Life Support Organization..
Read MoreAbstract Introduction Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery and is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. We investigated the..
Read MoreAbstract Purpose To determine if a cannulation method for venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-V ECMO) is related to patient outcome. Methods A retrospective, multi-center study of adult patients (≥18 years..
Read MoreAbstract Importance Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) has poor outcome. Whether intra-arrest transport, extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR), and immediate invasive assessment and treatment (invasive strategy) is beneficial in this setting remains uncertain...
Read MoreAbstract Introduction (ECMO) can be life-saving, but suffers from in the circuit with associated risks of occlusion, and . The formation of thrombin is the key step to thrombus formation and two factors are..
Read MoreAbstract The Impella mechanical circulatory support (MCS) system is a catheter-based continuous flow cardiac assist device that is widely used in the treatment of cardiogenic shock in medical and surgical cardiac intensive..
