Extracorporeal life support after staged palliation of a functional single ventricle: Subsequent morbidity and survival

Abstract: Twenty percent of patients were supported with a ventricular assist device alone, with 50% conversion to a ventricular assist device from extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. Survival to decannulation was encouraging. Multiorgan failure and risk of invasive infection in the post-extracorporeal membrane oxygenation period mitigate against survival to hospital discharge. Use of extracorporeal life support before cardiac arrest might reduce attrition between decannulation and hospital discharge.

“…8) Morris, et al 9) also reported that development of renal or hepatic dysfunction while patients were on PCPS was a factor associated with an increased probability of mortality in postoperative patients requiring PCPS. Hoskote, et al 10) found that multiple organ system failure was a significant risk factor for poor outcome among the nonsurvivors receiving PCPS after surgery in functional single ventricle patients. Many studies have shown that renal failure is an independent predisposing factor for increased mortality.…”

“…Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) is the rapid deployment of ECMO to provide immediate cardiovascular support for patients, who have cardiac arrest refractory to conventional CPR strategies [3,9]. Survival after ECPR in pediatric post-cardiotomy patients varies and results are steadily improving in the last decade [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16]. With appropriate patient selection and institutional effectiveness to deploy ECMO in a timely fashion, rescue ECMO may influence outcome [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16].…”

“…Indeed, the survival for these patients in the reports referenced above is not good. Others, however, have reported over 40% survival with MCS utilization after stage I of palliation (17). Substantially different results may be in part due to device selection, surgical technique or postoperative care, however, patient selection is by far the most likely factor.…”
