Abstract Introduction Due to anticoagulation during Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO), patients face a higher risk of bleeding. This study aimed to assess the correlation between anticoagulation assays and hemorrhage in..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Objective:  Unfractionated heparin (UFH) is the most widely used anticoagulant during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). Optimal dosing of UFH for children undergoing ECMO is unknown, leading to suboptimal exposure...

Abstract Objectives:  To identify factors associated with the development of death by neurologic criteria (DNC) in neonates treated with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). Design:  Retrospective registry study. Setting:  Data reported..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Objective:  To describe those neonates with dextro-transposition of the great arteries (d-TGA) who undergo preoperative support with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and to compare outcomes in those undergoing the..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract  (ECMO) is an invaluable resource in the treatment of critically ill children with cardiopulmonary failure.  To date, over 36,000 children have been placed on ECMO and the utilization of..

Abstract Background: Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) and cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) are used during pediatric heart surgery to provide cardiopulmonary support to patients as they undergo and recover from surgical..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Unfractionated heparin has long been the conventional anticoagulant for pediatric mechanical circulatory support (MCS). As bivalirudin has gained traction in ventricular assist devices (VAD) management, its role in extracorporeal..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is now commonly used to manage refractory pediatric cardiac or respiratory failure. Traditionally, ECMO has been associated with high morbidity. However, despite advancements in ECMO..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) can provide an option for high-risk procedures that may result in cardiopulmonary collapse. The indications for ECMO standby are not well delineated. We describe the..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Background Children undergoing extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) are at risk of hematologic and coagulation complications, including intracranial hemorrhage. Thromboelastography is used to monitor anticoagulation in patients receiving ECMO, but..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Objectives:  Decannulation after pediatric extracorporeal life support (ECLS) may be accompanied by arterial reconstruction. There is a paucity of data on arterial morphology following reconstruction. We sought to characterize..
