Use of ECMO in Acute MI

January 22, 2007 updated by: Johann Wolfgang Goethe University Hospital

Use of Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation in Treatment of Acute Myocardial Infarction Following Cardiac Surgery Procedures

ECMO offers an acceptable cardiopulmonary support in adults with similar hospital survival rates as other mechanical support. It is versatile and salvages some patients, who may otherwise die. Improvement in intermediate term outcome will require multidisciplinary approach to protect organ function and limit organ injury during this support.

Study Overview

Status

Unknown

Conditions

ECMO and Acute MI

Detailed Description

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is an established treatment option in patients with Cardiogenic Schock. We retrospectively reviewed early and mid-term outcome as well as predictors of survival during using ECMO. This report reviews our experience with this support system in last 3 years.
