Trang 2 ExtraCorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO)
ExtraCorporeal Life Support (ECLS)
extracorporeal CardioPulmonary Resuscitation (eCPR)
Technique for providing respiratory and/or cardiac support to patients whose native organs are so severely compromised that normal function/life is not possible
Trang 3 General Indications
Cardiac support
Respiratory support
Combination of the two
Support during high risk interventions (cath lab)
Trang 5ECMO

Trang 9Indications – VV ECMO
ARDS/hypoxemic respiratory failure
PaO2 to FiO2 ratio less than 80, despite salvage therapies for 6+ hrs
Hypercapneic respiratory failure (severe
COPD/asthma exacerbation)
Lung transplant candidates as bridge therapy
Severe air leak/bronchopleural fistula
requiring mechanical ventilation
Trang 10 Interval development of right heart failure
Acidosis due to reirculation
Trang 11 Assess cannula sites – may need surgical intervention
Decrease heparin (maximal pump flow on VV-ECMO allows for low to no heparin strategy – monitor
oxygenator)
Assess for non-ECMO associated bleeding

Bleeding Risk in EIOLA Trial
Trang 13 Decrease sedation if able
Interval development of right heart failure
Switch to VA ECMO to unload right ventricle
Trang 14 Oyxgenated blood does not reach tissues
Pt develops lactic acidosis
Monitor by following lactate and trending pre
oxygenator blood O2 saturation
Treat by using additional drainage cannula or,
preferably, by using a bicaval dual lumen cannula
Trang 15Take Home Message
If your patient is on VV ECMO, generally manage
their hemodynamics just as you would any other patient
Trang 16• Can be cannulated in a variety of ways
• Femoral vein – Femoral artery
• Internal jugular vein – Femoral artery
• Central – usually post cardiac surgery
• Femoral arterial cannulations require use of a distal perfusion cannula to preserve flow to leg
• Can also cannulate VAV by adding additional return cannula to venous side

Trang 19 VA Indications
Cardiovascular support/Cardiogenic shock
post-cardiotomy shock
Cardiomyopathy (ex Post-partum, viral)
Decompensated heart failure
AMI
Massive PE
• Systolic pressure of 85, CI<1.2 despite 2 pressors/IABP
• E-CPR
Trang 20 V-A Management goals
Hemodynamics
Can wean pressors or ventricular assist device first
These can cause heart to compete with ECMO pump
MAP goals usual 65-90
Maintain pulsatility
Need to avoid formation of LV thrombus
Trang 21 Avoid volume overload
Also need to maintain sufficient volume to avoid chatter
Trang 22Switch to VAV ECMO and ultimately to VV ECMO if lungs unable to provide oxygenated blood to recovering heart
Trang 24Take Home Message
If your patient is on VA-ECMO, your pump controls their hemodynamics until their heart recovers
