Abstract Background Although extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) has shown promise for refractory out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (CA), limited data exist regarding its application in cases involving severe primary blast lung injury..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Background Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) may reduce mortality and improve neurological outcomes in patients with cardiac arrest. We updated our existing meta-analysis and trial sequential analysis to further evaluate..
