Abstract Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) is an adjunct supportive therapy to conventional cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CCPR) employing veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) in the setting of refractory cardiac arrest. Its use..
Read MoreWhile the first patient lost his life, the pig-to-human would be successfully performed within two years, says Muhammed Mansur Muhiddin, the head of the team that performed the first operation..
Read MoreAbstract Interaction between native ventricular output and venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA ECMO) flow may hinder oxygenated blood flow to the aortic arch branches, resulting in differential hypoxemia. Typically, the..
Read MoreAbstract 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..
Read MoreAbstract Objective Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) in patients receiving venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV ECMO) can be accessed via separate venous access (SVA) or directly “in-line” within the ECMO circuit...

Read MoreAbstract Patient Blood Management (PBM) is a patient-centered, systemic and evidence-based approach. Its target is to manage and to preserve the patient’s own blood. The aim of PBM is to..
Read MoreAbstract 2021 and the COVID 19 pandemic have brought unprecedented blood shortages worldwide. These deficits have propelled national efforts to reduce blood usage, including limiting elective services and accelerating Patient..
Read MoreAbstract Background: Transfusion rates in cardiac surgery are high. Aim: To determine if intraoperative autologous blood removal without volume replacement is associated with fewer homologous blood transfusions without increasing acute kidney injury...
Read MoreAbstract Background: Postoperative complications following cardiac surgery are common and represent a serious burden to health services and society. However, there is a lack of consensus among experts on what..
Read MoreAbstract Lung transplantation (LTx) historically was performed with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) or Off-pump. Recent data suggest an increased interest in extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) as perioperative circulatory support by many..

Read MoreAbstract Platelets play a key role in maintaining hemostasis. However, dysregulated platelet activation can lead to pathological thrombosis or bleeding. Once a platelet gets activated, it will either become an..
Read MoreAbstract The emergency department (ED) abounds with hazards that might lead to adverse events (AEs). Clinicians must make frequent, high-consequence decisions with high diagnostic uncertainty as part of ad hoc..
Read MoreAbstract Aims The long-term outcomes of patients treated with extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) for refractory ventricular tachycardia/ventricular fibrillation (VT/VF) out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) remain poorly defined. The purpose of this..
Read MoreAbstract Background: This improvement report presents a hospital blood-management programme, a hospital-specific model that differs from patient blood managment and was aimed at improving operational standards of transfusion. We identified..
Read MoreAbstract Purpose: This study reports on survival and health related quality of life (HRQOL) after extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) treatment and the associated costs in the first year. Materials and..
Read MoreAbstract Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a universally accepted and life-saving therapy for neonates with respiratory or cardiac failure that is refractory to maximal medical management. Early studies found unacceptable..
