Extra corporal membrane oxygenation in general thoracic surgery: a new single veno-venous cannulation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is used in severe respiratory failure to maintain adequate gas exchange. So far, this technique has not been commonly used in general thoracic surgery. We present a case using ECMO for peri-operative airway management for pulmonary resection, using a novel single-site, internal jugular, veno-venous ECMO cannula.

Pitfalls in percutaneous ECMO cannulation
INTRODUCTION This observational report depicts typical problems of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation cannulation from a large case series of a single center. METHODS We analysed our experience with 720 consecutive patients receiving veno-venous or veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation focusing on the spectrum of complications occurring in a subset of 159 patients treated with pe...
متن کاملVeno-right ventricular extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for thoracic surgery: an experimental study in dogs.
BACKGROUND Although the indications for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) have been extended, ECMO has yet to be used as a respiratory support system during thoracic surgery. The purpose of this experimental study was to investigate whether veno-right ventricular (veno-RV) ECMO can be used for thoracic surgery without mechanical ventilation. METHODS Acute experimental study: Veno-RV ...
متن کاملMigrated Avalon Veno-Venous Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Cannula: How to Adjust Without Interruption of Flow.
The Avalon dual lumen cannula is presently the cannula of choice for veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO) via right internal jugular cannulation. This cannula establishes VV-ECMO with a single cannulation; however, it requires appropriate positioning to gain adequate oxygenation. Malposition of this cannula can cause inadequate ECMO flow, hypoxia, and structural injury. We ...
متن کاملRecirculation during veno-venous extra-corporeal membrane oxygenation--a simulation study.
PURPOSE Veno-venous ECMO is indicated in reversible life-threatening respiratory failure without life-threatening circulatory failure. Recirculation of oxygenated blood in the ECMO circuit decreases efficiency of patient oxygen delivery but is difficult to measure. We seek to identify and quantify some of the factors responsible for recirculation in a simulation model and compare with clinical ...
متن کاملVeno-venous two-site cannulation versus veno-venous double lumen ECMO: complications and survival in infants with respiratory failure
Objective. To compare complications and survival between the two-site veno-venous versus the veno-venous double lumen extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in infants with respiratory failure. Methods. The Extracorporeal Life Support Organization (ELSO, Ann Arbor, Michigan) provided the registry database, collected between 1999-2009 for this research project. During this period, 9086 infan...
