ICU Acquired Weakness, Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation
Brief summary
We conducted a retrospective study of critical ill patients who used ECMO during their ICU stay. ICU-AW was diagnosed at the time when patients discharged and had a Medical Research Council (MRC) sum score \< 48 out of a maximal score of 60. We divided patients to ICU-acquired weakness group and no ICU-acquired weakness group and compared their clinical characteristics. Baseline characteristics and therapy details were collected from the case report forms and inspection reports. Univariable analysis and logistic regression analysis were used to analyze clinical characteristics of individuals and to find risk factors of ICU-AW.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Differences between ICU-acquired weakness in patients receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support | 1 day | We compared the clinical characteristics between ICU-acquired weakness group and no ICU-acquired weakness group by univariate analysis . Then we used logistic regression analysis and found out differences of ICU-acquired weakness. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Frequency of ICU-acquired weakness in in patients receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support | 1 day | We calculated the prevalence of ICU-acquired weakness on the patients included in our research. |
