Supporting oxygenation in acute respiratory failure.
Strategies to support oxygenation can cause substantial harm through lung stretch injury, oxygen toxicity, transfusion risks and cardiac over-stimulation. Traditional goals of maintaining near normal cardiorespiratory parameters are most likely overly simplistic and are insensitive and nonspecific for tissue hypoxic effects. In order to reduce iatrogenic harm, it is conceivable that clinicians ...
متن کاملExtracorporeal membrane oxygenation for nonneonatal acute respiratory failure.
HYPOTHESIS Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is effective in nonneonatal acute respiratory failure under certain circumstances. DESIGN Retrospective medical record review. SETTING The intensive care unit of a tertiary care hospital. PATIENTS Thirty-four nonneonatal patients (mean age, 22 years; range, 8 days to 56 years), with ratios of the PaO2 to the fraction of inspired oxygen...
متن کاملExtracorporeal membrane oxygenation for severe acute respiratory failure
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a technique for providing life support, in case the natural lungs are failing and are not able to maintain a sufficient oxygenation of the body's organ systems. ECMO technique was an adaptation of conventional cardiopulmonary bypass techniques and introduced into treatment of severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in the 1970s. The initia...
متن کامل[Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in neonatal respiratory failure].
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has been used for 20 years in neonates and children with cardiac and respiratory failure. The number of neonates treated with ECMO has increased exponentially, but the number of older children treated is small. The selection and exclusion criteria for pediatric ECMO are poorly defined, and the results vary because of variable selection criteria and ins...
متن کاملExtracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation for Neonatal Respiratory Failure
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a form of cardiopulmonary bypass adapted for long-term use. Blood is drained from the patient, pumped through an artificial lung or membrane where gas exchange is augmented, and then re-infused back to the patient. ECMO provides support for the neonate with severe respiratory failure so that potentially deleterious ventilator settings can be minimiz...
