This procedure is carried out via a full sternotomy using standard aortic and bicaval cannulations. For the aortic and pulmonary anastomoses, selective antegrade unilateral cerebral perfusion is used after cooling the body temperature to 26 °Celsius. A 12-mm Hancock conduit is interposed between the pulmonary artery and the proximal descending aorta using standard running suture techniques.

Mortality remains elevated during venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support (VA-ECMO) for cardiogenic shock and the role of inflammation is uncertain. By using the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), we investigated inflammatory dynamics during VA-ECMO and their relation to clinical outcomes. A single-center, retrospective cohort study was conducted.

However, traditional ECMO decannulation methods, such as manual compression and surgical repair, are associated with significant complications. This study evaluates suture-mediated closure devices, specifically Perclose ProGlide, as a potentially favorable decannulation strategy.
