Inclusion criteria: 1. Age >= 18 years, regardless of gender; 2. Received VV, VA or V-AV ECMO treatment due to severe heart/lung failure, and the treatment duration was >= 24 hours; 3. After assessment by the medical team, it was determined that the patient could successfully be removed from ECMO (the indication for removal is in line with the ELSO guidelines); 4. Before we remove the ventilator, the hemoglobin (Hb) level should be 6 to 10 g/dL (excluding patients with high Hb levels who do not require blood transfusion); 5. The patient or their legal representative signs the informed consent form.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1.Presence of severe active bleeding prior to or during ECMO weaning (e.g., intracranial hemorrhage, massive gastrointestinal bleeding, etc.); 2.Received allogeneic blood products within 24 hours before the removal of the ventilator; 3.Combined with severe coagulation dysfunction (such as congenital deficiency of coagulation factors, coagulation disorder caused by severe liver disease, etc.); 4.Combine malignant tumors, end-stage kidney disease (not acute kidney injury), immunodeficiency diseases and other underlying conditions; 5.Pregnant or lactating women; 6.It is expected that death will occur within 48 hours after the removal of the ventilator. 7.Refused to participate in this study; 8.A bloodstream infection had occurred before the removal of the ventilator and the administration of blood transfusion.
