Aim: To ascertain the association between body composition, including muscle mass and adiposity, and patient mortality in those requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for acute respiratory failure.
Materials And Methods: A retrospective study was undertaken of all patients with acute respiratory failure requiring veno-venous (VV) ECMO between January 2015 and December 2019. Automated image segmentation software was used to quantify the cross-sectional area and average radiodensity (in Hounsfield units) of different muscle and fat compartments at the L3 level of whole-body computed tomography (CT) images taken within 48 h of initiation of ECMO support.

Objectives: To investigate changes in von Willebrand factor (VWF) concentration, function, and multimers during pediatric extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and determine whether routine monitoring of VWF during ECMO would be useful in predicting bleeding.
Design: Prospective observational study of pediatric ECMO patients from April 2017 to May 2019.
Setting: The PICU in a large, tertiary referral pediatric ECMO center.
