Refractory hypoxaemia on extracorporeal CO2R: Case report and literature review

Abstract Extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCO2R) is increasingly used in clinical practice as a means of facilitating protective mechanical ventilation and reducing the risk of ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) in patients..

Venopulmonary Artery Extracorporeal Life Support (VPa ECMO): A Novel Strategy for Refractory Hypoxemia Complicating VV ECMO

Abstract Refractory hypoxemia (RH) during venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV ECMO) support is a complex problem that limits the benefit of this therapy. The need for sustained deep sedation and..

Therapeutic Hypothermia for Refractory Hypoxemia on Venovenous Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation: An In Silico Study

Abstract Patients with respiratory failure may remain hypoxemic despite treatment with venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO). Therapeutic hypothermia is a potential treatment for such hypoxia as it reduces cardiac output (�˙�) and oxygen consumption. We modified a previously..

Parallel circuits for refractory hypoxemia on venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

Abstract Refractory hypoxemia during support on venovenous (VV) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a challenging clinical problem. Manipulating ventilator settings, prone positioning, optimizing cannula position, and ECMO flows, and the..

Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Circuits in Parallel for Refractory Hypoxemia in COVID-19: A Case Series

Abstract Refractory hypoxemia despite the use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)–related acute respiratory distress syndrome remains a challenging problem. A single ECMO circuit may not..
