Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Selection by Multidisciplinary Consensus: The ECMO Council

Abstract: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has increased the demand for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and introduced distinct challenges to patient selection for ECMO. Standardized processes for patient selection amidst resource limitations are lacking, and data on ECMO consults are underreported. We retrospectively reviewed consecutive adult ECMO consults for acute respiratory failure received at a single academic medical center from April 1, 2020, to February 28, 2021, and evaluated the implementation … Show more

“…Irrespective of the various medical indications, more than 176,000 patients received ECLS between 1990 and today. After a first leap in deployments following the H1N1-pandemic 2008/09, ECLS was also an important therapy during the COVID-19 pandemic [2]. This increases the relevance of ECLS as a therapy and signifies the demand for expedited ECLS research models, especially as ECLS still suffers from many complications.…”
