Article Synopsis
  • A study explored a new heparin-free anticoagulation strategy in patients with hemorrhage risk undergoing veno-venous ECMO for acute respiratory failure, assessing outcomes from 2012 to 2020.
  • Out of 70 patients who received an initial low heparin dose, 25 survived while 45 did not, with survival linked to lower baseline SOFA scores and higher platelet counts shortly after ECMO initiation.
  • Complications such as thrombosis occurred in 54.3% of cases, but the study found no significant differences in complications between survivors and non-survivors, indicating the need for further investigation into anticoagulation management in these patients.

Aim To review the indications, complications and outcomes of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in major trauma patients. Methods Single centre, retrospective, cohort study. Results Over a ten year period, from 13,420 major trauma patients, 11 were identified from our institutional trauma registry as having received ECMO.

Veno-Venous Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome During Hemorrhagic Shock.

ASAIO J

August 2021

From the Department of General Surgery, Division of Trauma and Acute Care Surgery, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Chapel Hill, North Carolina.

Despite overall improvements in critical care, mortality from acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) remains high. Veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-V ECMO) is used to rescue patients with severe ARDS. Although V-V ECMO can be life-saving, there are significant risks associated with this therapy.

Heparin-free veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in a multiple trauma patient: A case report.

Medicine (Baltimore)

January 2020

Department of Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine, College of Medicine, Ewha Womans University, Seoul, South Korea.

Rationale: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in multiple trauma patients with post-traumatic respiratory failure can be quite challenging because of the need for systemic anticoagulation, which may lead to excessive bleeding. In the last decade, there is a growing body of evidence that veno-venous ECMO (VV-ECMO) is lifesaving in multiple trauma patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome, thanks to technical improvements in ECMO devices.

Patient Concerns: We report a case of a 17-year-old multiple trauma patient who was drunken and had confused mentality.
