Pediatric Acute Myocarditis With Short-Term Outcomes and Factors for Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation: A Single-Center Retrospective Cohort Study in Vietnam.

Data on the management and outcomes of acute myocarditis treated with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) among low- and middle-income countries are limited. This study aimed to determine the short-term outcomes and also identify factors associated with ECMO use among children with acute myocarditis at a tertiary children's hospital in Vietnam. A single-center, retrospective observational study was conducted between January 2016 and February 2021.

Pertussis Infants Needing Mechanical Ventilation and Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation: Single-Center Retrospective Series in Vietnam.
