Impact of mobilization in patients with short-term mechanical circulatory support such as Levitronix® CentriMag as a bridge to heart transplantation.

Introduction: Despite the benefits of mobilisation in the critical patient, the evidence in patients with Levitronix® CentriMag as a bridge to heart transplantation (HT) is scarce. The objective of this study is to analyze the impact of mobility on these patients.

Methods: Retrospective observational study of patients who received a HT with Levitronix® CentriMag admitted between 2010 and 2019 to a tertiary hospital.

Discharge survival of patients undergoing ECMO therapy after ECPR in a third level hospital.

Goal: The goal of this study was to assess the survival to hospital discharge in patients after the implementation of venoarterial-extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) during cardiopulmonary arrest (simultaneously or during the first six hours after the event) in a Spanish tertiary hospital.

Method: This is a descriptive and retrospective study conducted with patients subjected to VA-ECMO therapy during or after cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in the last 10 years. The variables were extracted from the electronic medical record of each patient.
