Veno-pulmonary extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for concomitant right ventricular and respiratory support: A systematic review of utilization patterns and outcomes

Abstract Background Veno-pulmonary artery extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-P ECMO) is a configuration of extracorporeal life support (ECLS) for patients with isolated or predominantly right ventricular (RV) failure and inadequate gas..

Hemodynamics of Veno-Pulmonary Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation With Varying Right Ventricular Function in a Mock Circulatory Loop

Abstract Veno-pulmonary extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VP ECMO) is an emerging mechanical support therapy for patients with right ventricular (RV) injury. This study aimed to assess the hemodynamic impact of VP..

Parameters associated with successful weaning of veno‑arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation: a systematic review

Abstract Purpose: Veno‑arterial (VA) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) can be used to restore organ perfusionin patients with cardiogenic shock until native heart recovery occurs. It may be challenging, however, to..

Impaired right ventricular ejection fraction after cardiac surgery is associated with a complicated ICU stay

Abstract Background Right ventricular (RV) dysfunction is a known risk factor for increased mortality in cardiac surgery. However, the association between RV performance and ICU morbidity is largely unknown. Methods..
