Study outcomes for adults on VA ECMO

This study looks at how well patients recover after needing a heart-lung bypass machine (VV-ECMO) during or right after emergency chest surgery. It aims to understand what affects their prognosis.

This study uses a brain MRI with a special blood-vessel scan to see how circulation changes after a life-support machine called ECMO in young children. It may help doctors better understand what happens in the brain after ECMO and improve care.

This study will look at whether “left ventricular unloading” (using a device like IABP or Impella) helps people who are in cardiogenic shock while on VA ECMO. It compares outcomes for people who get unloading versus those who stay on VA ECMO alone.

This study looks at how often abnormal heart rhythms happen and how serious they are in adults who are supported with VA ECMO for severe heart failure. It mainly involves using medical information, aiming to better understand complications in this critical situation.

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 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.
