Immunglobulin M Enriched Intra Venous Immunoglobulin (IVIG) Therapy in Adult Respiratory Distress Syndrom (ARDS) Patients (IVIG)

April 20, 2018 updated by: PD Dr. Helene Haeberle, University Hospital Tuebingen

Intravenous Immunoglobulin Therapy in ARDS Patients With Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) Therapy

57 patients with Adult Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) requiring Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) therapy were analyzed retrospectively. 28 patients had received immunglobulin M-enriched immunoglobulin therapy (IVIG); 29 patients did not receive IVIG therapy.

These patients were analyzed regarding length of stay in intensive care unit (LOS ICU), length of stay (LOS) in hospital and regarding mortality.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

57 patients with ARDS requiring ECMO therapy were analyzed retrospectively. 28 patients had received IgM-enriched immunoglobulin therapy (IVIG); 29 patients did not receive IVIG therapy.

Patient characteristics, like Acute Physiology And Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) and Sepsis-related organ failure assessment (SAPS) Score, preexisting diseases, origin of infection, duration of ECMO therapy were analyzed in these patients.

These patients were further analyzed regarding LOS ICU, LOS in hospital and regarding mortality.
