Domestic extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in the treatment of cardiogenic shock and acute respiratory failure:a report of 8 cases and literature review
Objective To analyze the safety and efficacy of domestic extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(HX-EC-MO)for patients with cardiogenic shock and acute respiratory failure.Methods In the Department of Emergency,Qilu Hospital,Shandong University,HX-ECMO was used for the treatment of 8 patients with cardiogenic shock and(or)acute respiratory failure during December 2022 and March 2023.The efficacy of treatment was prospectively ana-lyzed.Results After treatment,all indexes were improved,as sufficient circulatory and oxygenation support were pro-vided to patients through artificial heart pump and membrane lung,which created conditions for the recovery of organ function.Compared with conventional treatment,ECMO improved the success rate of acute respiratory and circulatory failure.During the study,HX-ECMO operated stably and performed well.Conclusion Domestic HX-ECMO can effectively improve the success rate of patients with cardiogenic shock and acute respiratory failure,which can provide support for the application of ECMO.
