Abstract Giani et al. found low levels of carboxyhemoglobin (COHb) in a cohort of patients supported on veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV ECMO) at their center. It is noteworthy that even on..

Abstract Hemolysis is a complication of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Carboxyhemoglobin (COHb) and methemoglobin (MetHb) were suggested as potential hemolysis biomarkers. This retrospective study was based on a prospective registry aimed..

Abstract BACKGROUND: Cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is associated with hemolysis. Yet, there is no easily available and frequently measured marker to monitor this hemolysis. However, carboxyhemoglobin (CO-Hb), formed..

Abstract Background The continuous exposure of blood to a non-biological surface during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) may lead to progressive thrombus formation in the oxygenator, hemolysis and consequently impaired gas..

Abstract Introduction: Hemolysis, characterized by increased carboxyhemoglobin (COHb) and methemoglobin (MetHb) levels, is a complication of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). Methods: This prospective single-center study aimed to investigate the correlation..
