Abstract:IntroductionCerebrovascular complications are feared but also commonly reported in patients with COVID-19 requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support therapy. Besides other reasons, a connection between impaired cerebral autoregulation and SARS-CoV-2 infection as a mechanism for an increase in cerebrovascular complications has been hypothesized.MethodsIn an observational single-center study, we investigated a cohort of 48 patients requiring veno-venous ECMO support therapy with (n = 31) and wi… Show more
