Abstract Data describing the use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in pediatric acute liver failure (PALF) are scarce. Thus, we aimed to describe the use of ECMO in patients with..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a high-risk and low-volume life support with increasing clinical study. However, heterogenous outcome definitions impede data assimilation into evidence to guide practice. The Academic..
