Cardiovascular Resuscitation, Venovenous Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation
Conditions
Brief summary
In-hospital cardiovascular arrest is associated with poor outcome despite prompt treatment and optimal on-site resources. The population of patients treated by venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (vv-ECMO) due to pulmonary failure is a very challenging group of patients. To date, the frequency, causes and outcome of cardiovascular arrest in these patients have not been studied. We are aiming to conduct a retrospective observational study of all vv-ECMO patients treated at our ARDS centre.
