The efficacy of veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO) as rescue therapy for refractory COVID-19-related ARDS (C-ARDS) is still debated. We describe the cohort of C-ARDS patients treated with VV-ECMO at our ECMO center, focusing on factors that may affect in-hospital mortality and describing the time course of lung mechanics to assess prognosis. We performed a prospective observational study in the intensive care unit at the "Città della Salute e della Scienza" University Hospital in Turin, Italy, between March 2020 and December 2021. Indications and management of ECMO followed the Extracorporeal Life Support Organization (ELSO) guidelines. The 60-day in-hospital mortality was particularly high (85.4%). Non-survivor patients were more frequently treated with non-invasive ventilatory support and steroids before ECMO (95.1% vs. 57.1%, = 0.018 and 73.2% vs. 28.6%, = 0.033, respectively), while hypertension was the only pre-ECMO factor independently associated with in-hospital mortality (HR: 2.06, 95%CI: 1.06-4.00). High rates of bleeding (85.4%) and superinfections (91.7%) were recorded during ECMO, likely affecting the overall length of ECMO (18 days, IQR: 10-24) and the hospital stay (32 days, IQR: 24-47). Static lung compliance was lower in non-survivors ( = 0.031) and differed over time ( = 0.049), decreasing by 48% compared to initial values in non-survivors. Our data suggest the importance of considering NIS among the common ECMO eligibility criteria and changes in lung compliance during ECMO as a prognostic marker.
