Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation for Neonatal and Pediatric Respiratory Failure

Abstract: Despite a large number of published extracorporeal membrane oxygenation studies, there remains a paucity of high-quality clinical trials. The available data support continued use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for respiratory failure refractory to conventional therapy for neonatal and pediatric patients without significant comorbidities. Further research is needed to better quantify the benefit of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and the utility of many therapies commonly applied to extracorporeal m… Show more

“…The Pediatric Acute Lung Injury Consensus Conference (PALICC) recently published guidelines outlining research priorities for the field, which include a crucial need for accurate bedside risk-stratification of patients (57). Identification of patients at the highest risk of death might enable the targeted application of higher-risk therapies, such as prone positioning, neuromuscular blockade, renal replacement therapy, and extracorporeal life support, and may facilitate stratification for enrollment in clinical trials (812). …”

“…ECMO is an external device that supports the cardiopulmonary system by providing oxygenation and cardiac function for a patient in cardiac and respiratory failure. ECMO has been successfully used in all ages for various medical and surgical conditions leading to cardiovascular collapse, respiratory failure, cardiogenic shock, or refractory hypotension [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. ECMO has also been used in poisoning exposures when cardiac arrest or refractory hypotension develops.…”

“…Conclusions: Percutaneous cannulation for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation by intensivists can be performed with a high rate of success and a low rate of complications when accompanied by imaging support. (Crit Care Med 2015; 43:1010-1015) Key Words: acute cardiac failure; acute respiratory distress syndrome; extracorporeal life support; extracorporeal membrane oxygenation; intensivist E xtracorporeal life support (ECLS) is a therapeutic option in the management of severe acute respiratory failure when mechanical ventilation and adjunctive measures fail to provide adequate gas exchange or when lung rest cannot be achieved due to high ventilator requirements (1)(2)(3). It is also used for short-term support of acute cardiac failure and for extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) (4)(5)(6).…”
