New strategy for distal limb perfusion in veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation treatment: application of continuous renal replacement therapy tubing

Abstract Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a technology that can temporarily take over the functions of the heart and lungs. Acute kidney injury is a common issue in patients receiving..

Using near-infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) to assess distal-limb perfusion on venoarterial (V-A) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) patients with femoral cannulation

Abstract Background: Patients requiring V-A ECMO who receive femoral cannulation have an associated risk of distal, lower-limb hypoperfusion and ischemia of the cannulated leg. This pilot study evaluated the usefulness..
