TLDR
This review discusses the various monitoring modalities relevant to the management of patients on venovenous ECMO (VV ECMO) and venoarterial (VA ECMO), and emphasizes how differences between VV and VA ECMO are reflected in distinct approaches to monitoring.
Abstract
Purpose of reviewHemodynamic monitoring in ECMO patients requires familiarity with the underlying pathophysiology and circulatory mechanics of extracorporeal flow. This review discusses the various monitoring modalities relevant to the management of patients on venovenous ECMO (VV ECMO) and venoarte

Pulmonary complications associated with veno-arterial extra-corporeal membrane oxygenation: a comprehensive review

TL;DR: The mechanisms of lung damage and dysfunction under VA-ECMO are presented, potential strategies to prevent and treat such alterations are discussed and could possibly result in long-term lung dysfunction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trendelenburg maneuver predicts fluid responsiveness in patients on veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated whether changes in left ventricular outflow tract velocity-time integral (ΔVTI), induced by a Trendelenburg maneuver, could predict fluid responsiveness during VA-ECMO.
Journal ArticleDOI

Contemporary Comprehensive Monitoring of Veno-arterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Patients

TL;DR: More research is needed to establish optimal evidence-based care pathways and best-practice principles for using these devices to improve patient outcomes and to understand risks and benefits of VA ECMO.
Journal ArticleDOI

Documento de consenso SEDAR/SECCE sobre el manejo de ECMO

TL;DR: In this article, a documento de consenso pretende unificar conocimientos and aportar recomendations basadas tanto en la bibliografia reciente como en la experiencia de los principales centros nacionales implantadores de ECMO con el objetivo final de mejorar la atencion integral al paciente.

Myocardial perfusion and cardiac dimensions during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation-supported circulation in a porcine model of critical post-cardiotomy failure.

TL;DR: Coronary artery blood flow is maintained during venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation after cardiopulmonary bypass and cardioplegic arrest despite severely affected performance of the left ventricle.

Association of hospital-level volume of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation cases and mortality: Analysis of the extracorporeal life support organization registry

TL;DR: In this international, case-mix-adjusted analysis, higher annual hospital ECMO volume was associated with lower mortality in 1989-2013 for neonates and adults; the association among adults persisted in 2008-2013.
Journal ArticleDOI

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation: evolving epidemiology and mortality.

TL;DR: In a high-income country like Germany, the use of ECMO has been rapidly increasing since 2007 for both respiratory and cardiac support, with a recent plateau in vv-ECMO use.

Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation for Cardiogenic Shock and Cardiac Arrest

TL;DR: Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) as discussed by the authors is a form of temporary mechanical circulatory support and simultaneous extrorporeal gas exchange and is a salvage intervention in patients with cardiogenic shock, even cardiac arrest refractory to standard therapies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Position paper for the organization of ECMO programs for cardiac failure in adults.

TL;DR: This document advocates for a multidisciplinary team of experts to guide institutional use of this therapy and the care of patients receiving it, and highlights key aspects of care delivery in this rapidly growing technology.
