Delayed Onset of Acute Limb Compartment Syndrome With Neuropathy After Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Therapy
Acute limb compartment syndrome (ALCS) is defined as compound symptoms resulting from poor oxygenation and decreased nutrition supply to muscles and nerves in a tightly confined compartment. The most common cause of ALCS is tibia fracture, followed by blunt trauma to soft tissue. However, non-traumatic causes are rare. We report an iatrogenic, non-traumatic ALCS case after venoarterial extracor...
متن کاملExtracorporeal membrane oxygenation: an unusual cause of acute limb compartment syndrome.
Acute limb compartment syndrome is a surgical emergency associated with significant morbidity if not diagnosed promptly and treated effectively. We describe a case of severe and eventually lethal acute limb compartment syndrome, which complicated veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in a previously well young woman who had suffered an unexplained cardiac arrest. We recommend that i...
متن کاملClinical use of venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.
With advances in mechanical circulation, venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation has become an established technique to provide cardiopulmonary support for patients with cardiovascular collapse. This article reviews the physiological principles of such extracorporeal technique and its interaction with the native heart. Practical aspects including equipment, patient selection, and commo...
متن کاملMonitoring of the Adult Patient on Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation
Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA ECMO) provides mechanical support to the patient with cardiac or cardiopulmonary failure. This paper reviews the physiology of VA ECMO including the determinants of ECMO flow and gas exchange. The efficacy of this therapy may be determined by assessing patient hemodynamics and device flow, overall gas exchange support, markers of adequate oxy...
متن کاملBeriberi Induced Cardiomyopathy Requiring Salvage Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation
Beriberi refers to a constellation of symptoms caused primarily by thiamine (vitamin B1) deficiency. An acute and fulminant presentation of this rare condition has been described in the literature as "Shoshin" beriberi which is characterized by catastrophic cardiovascular collapse. Early recognition and treatment lead to dramatic improvements of symptoms. We present a case of thiamine deficienc...
