New Right Ventricular Dysfunction in Pediatric Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome on Venovenous Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation

Abstract The development of new right ventricular (RV) dysfunction after cannulation to venovenous (VV) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and its association with worse outcomes is increasingly recognized in adult patients,..

Right Ventricular Injury Increases Mortality in Patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome on Veno-Venous Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation: A Systematic Review…

Abstract Right ventricular injury (RVI) in the context of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is well recognized as an important determinant risk factor of mortality. Veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO)..

Late-onset right ventricular dysfunction after mechanical support by a continuous-flow left ventricular assist device

Abstract Background Right heart failure (RHF) is a serious post-operative complication of left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation, with significant morbidity and mortality. Many clinical, hemodynamic and laboratory variables have..
