Evidence
• First trials in adults in 1970s. No improvement in long term outcomes, with multiple methodological problems (No lung rest)
• Use in adults limited to select centers through the 90s.
• Published data for adults still limited, but improving
• U of M registry with 56% survival rate in 146 adults with respiratory failure, 33% survival in 31 adults with cardiac failure

CESAR
RR of death or permanent disability 0.69 with P=0.03 in 180 patient RCT for severe ARDS (H1N1)
![Page 14: AB, 54 yo Male - Vanderbilt University Medical Center Boot...•Flow dependent on resistance, so minimize drugs that cause ... Anticoagulation monitored closely with hep assay,](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022022518/5b0cb0e57f8b9a685a8d02ae/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
ELSO registry
• Of 1,473 patients, 50% survived to discharge.
• Median age was 34 years.
• (78%) were supported with venovenous ECMO.
• CPR and complications while on ECMO including circuit rupture, central nervous system infarction or hemorrhage, gastrointestinal or pulmonary hemorrhage, and arterial blood pH < 7.2 or >7.6 were associated with increased odds of death.

Management
• Anticoagulation
• Patients on ECMO must be anticoagulated with heparin or a direct Xa inhibitor. Anticoagulation monitored closely with hepassay, ACT, or PTT determined by ECMO intensivist
• Can be held for short periods of time in the setting of uncontrolled hemorrhage
• Bleeding complications (CVA, retroperitoneal hemorrhage, anemia) common, so vigilance is required
![Page 16: AB, 54 yo Male - Vanderbilt University Medical Center Boot...•Flow dependent on resistance, so minimize drugs that cause ... Anticoagulation monitored closely with hep assay,](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022022518/5b0cb0e57f8b9a685a8d02ae/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Management
• Lung rest
• Crucial to effectiveness of therapy, particularly when on VV.
• Peak pressures under 20 cm H2O
• TV often too small to prevent alarms. Work with RT to find solution (flows added to circuit to confuse vent)
• Can extubate if neuro allows for pulmonary toilet, maintenance of airway.
• Infection
• Difficult to diagnose
• Circuit can cause SIRS
• Fluid warmer maintains central temp wnl
• Serum markers often used (CRP, procalcitonin)
![Page 17: AB, 54 yo Male - Vanderbilt University Medical Center Boot...•Flow dependent on resistance, so minimize drugs that cause ... Anticoagulation monitored closely with hep assay,](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022022518/5b0cb0e57f8b9a685a8d02ae/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Management
• Mechanical problems
• Frequently a true emergency
• Damage to circuit: may require emergent replacement of circuit
• Call for help
• Consider returning vent to pressures necessary for temporary support
• May require support with high dose inotropes, pressors until flow re-established
• Thrombosis, air lock, pump failure
• Be prepared to provide support to ECMO specialist, perfusion
• Critical Illness
• Most important: is still a critically ill patient. Excellent ICU care will play as important a role in recovery as ECMO. Be vigilant, precise.

` Management
• Monitors
• Pre and post pump pressure monitors.
• Typical pre pump <100mmHg, but no absolute number
• Trend upward raises concern for hypovolemia, thrombosis
• Post pump <350 mmHg, but also trend is more important
• Sharp increases can indicate kinked cannula, problems with site, thombosis
• ABGs
• Usually done at least Q2 Hrs early on
• Goal pH 7.35-7.45, regardless of PaCO2
• PaO2 drawn form RUE on VA to assure brain oxygenation
• Often low PaO2 due to mixing, but OK if clearing lactate
