Abstract Background While the clinical effectiveness of extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) has gained increasing attention, its real-world utilization, patient selection, and system-level implementation remain incompletely..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Background Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) can improve outcomes in refractory out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), but access is limited by geographic and system constraints. We aimed to compare the potential..

Abstract Background Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) has emerged as a promising intervention for refractory cardiac arrest, with potential benefits in survival and neurological outcomes. However, the impact of ECPR’s rapid,..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract As extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) is increasingly utilized for refractory cardiac arrest in adults, we learn significantly more about resuscitation in ways that were not applicable, or even available..

Abstract Introduction: Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (eCPR) has demonstrated patient outcome-driven benefits for those with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in refractory ventricular fibrillation/pulseless ventricular tachycardia but remains an infrequent procedure requiring hands-on training...

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) is a time-critical, resource-intensive intervention used in select cases of refractory cardiac arrest. Its success depends on rapid initiation, streamlined workflows, and coordination across multidisciplinary..
