Finding outcomes after ECMO for heart-related emergencies
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at what helps determine survival and better brain function after people are treated with ECMO, a heart-lung support machine. It may help doctors understand who is most likely to do well after this kind of emergency treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You were treated with ECMO (a machine that supports the heart and lungs)
- You may be in the group assessed after ECMO treatment

This trial tests a targeted approach to manage oxygen levels in the brain for patients who received ECMO (a machine that does the heart and lung work) after a cardiac arrest that did not respond to standard CPR. The goal is to improve brain recovery and outcomes.
This study follows people who are on ECMO (a machine that supports heart and lung function) to see how they do and what their quality of life is like afterward. It helps doctors learn more about long-term recovery.
This registry collects information about people who are placed on ECMO, a heart-lung machine used to support breathing and/or circulation. It may help doctors better understand who benefits and how to manage ECMO in the future.
This study looks at a treatment called ECMO, a machine that does the work of the heart and lungs, to help people whose heart has stopped and does not restart with standard CPR. Researchers want to learn if placing ECMO at the scene can improve survival.
This trial tests whether giving ECMO (a heart-lung machine) to people in cardiac arrest before they reach the hospital can improve survival. It might be an option if you had a witnessed heart attack and received CPR quickly.
This trial looks at using a specific heart-lung support machine (the EUROSETS ECMOLIFE system) for adults who need urgent “extra” circulation support. It may help clinicians understand how well the device works in serious situations like shock, cardiac arrest, or after heart surgery.
