Blood Recirculation and vvECMO

June 24, 2020 updated by: Steffen Weber-Carstens, Charite University, Berlin, Germany

Measurment of Blood Recirculation and Adjustment of vvECMO Blood Flow During Veno-venous Extracoporeal Membrane Oxygenation

A prospective, observational study will be performed measuring recirculation of blood through a veno-venous Extracoporeal Membrane Oxygenation (vvECMO) in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) on vvECMO. ECMO blood flow will be adjusted with respect to recirculation.
