Introduction: This study aimed to characterize the severity of bleeding and its association with short-term neurologic outcomes in pediatric ECMO.

Methods: Multicenter retrospective cohort study of pediatric ECMO patients at 10 centers utilizing the Pediatric ECMO Outcomes Registry (PEDECOR) database from December 2013-February 2019. Subjects excluded were post-cardiac surgery patients and those with neonatal pathologies.

Objectives: To derive systematic review informed, modified Delphi consensus regarding monitoring and replacement of specific coagulation factors during pediatric extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support for the Pediatric ECMO Anticoagulation CollaborativE.

Data Sources: A structured literature search was performed using PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library (CENTRAL) databases from January 1988 to May 2020, with an update in May 2021.

Study Selection: Included studies assessed monitoring and replacement of antithrombin, fibrinogen, and von Willebrand factor in pediatric ECMO support.

Article Synopsis
  • Impaired primary hemostasis and abnormal blood vessel growth (angiogenesis) contribute to gastrointestinal bleeding in patients using continuous-flow left ventricular assist devices (CF-LVADs) in a "two-hit hypothesis."
  • A study examined the effects of acute exercise on blood samples from 22 CF-LVAD patients, measuring changes in hemostatic and angiogenic biomarkers.
  • Results showed that acute exercise significantly increased platelet count and function, as well as various factors related to blood clotting and vessel growth, suggesting potential benefits for GI bleeding management in these patients.
