“…In the present study, we observed that the intraoperative ECMO support was more likely to be required in older recipients. Age has been a wellknown prognostic factor for lung transplantation and several studies have shown that age was significantly correlated with ECMO support in other disease [16][17][18]. In addition to age, we found that the duration of mechanical ventilation before operation and higher preoperative APA-CHE II scores were also associated with ECMO support during lung transplantation, which suggests that patients requiring pre-transplant mechanical ventilation and had higher preoperative APACHE II scores should be considered for ECMO support.…”

“…An evolving experience with ambulatory ECMO has demonstrated that this approach can be used to avoid deconditioning and allow patients to be ambulatory while awaiting organ offers and transplantation 28 32 , and using ambulatory ECMO has recently been shown to have economic advantages over non-ambulatory ECMO 33 . Recent queries of the UNOS database have shown that while the use of ECMO had an adverse impact on survival for older patients, a negative effect was not demonstrated for a subgroup of younger patients under 40 years of age 34 , and when used in high-volume transplant centers, ECMO use did not appear to increase the risk of post-transplant mortality 35 .…”
