Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support for refractory septic shock in liver transplantation recipients
PURPOSE This study was designed to assess the outcome of the extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in liver transplantation (LT) recipients with refractory septic shock and predict the prognosis of those cases. METHODS From February 2005 to October 2012, ECMO was used in 8 cases of refractory septic shock. Laboratory values including lactate and total bilirubin level just before starting...
متن کاملDouble Peripheral Venous and Arterial Cannulation for Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation in Combined Septic and Cardiogenic Shock
BACKGROUND The use of venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (va-ECMO) via peripheral cannulation for septic shock is limited by blood flow and increased afterload for the left ventricle. CASE REPORT A 15-year-old girl with acute myelogenous leukemia, suffering from severe septic and cardiogenic shock, was treated by venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (va-ECMO). Sufficie...
متن کاملExtracorporeal membrane oxygenation for pheochromocytoma-induced cardiogenic shock
BACKGROUND Pheochromocytoma, a rare catecholamine-producing tumor, might provoke stress-induced Takotsubo-like cardiomyopathy and severe cardiogenic shock. Because venoarterial-extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) rescue of pheochromocytoma-induced refractory cardiogenic shock has rarely been reported, we reviewed our ICU patients' presentations and outcomes. METHODS All pheochromocy...
متن کاملRescue extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for refractory cardiogenic shock
Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) has been increasingly used for bridge-to-recovery, bridge-to-decision or bridge to ventricular assist device (VAD) implantation or heart transplantation in patients with cardiogenic shock (CS). We report a case of iatrogenic left main coronary artery (LMCA) dissection and secondary cardiogenic shock in which mechanical cardiopulmonary ...
متن کاملExtracorporeal membrane oxygenation support for adult postcardiotomy cardiogenic shock.
BACKGROUND Postcardiotomy cardiogenic shock occasionally develops in patients who have undergone cardiac procedures. We report our experience using extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in adult patients with postcardiotomy cardiogenic shock, and analyze the factors that affected outcomes for these ECMO patients. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of ECMO patients. ...
