DOI: 10.1007/s00134-019-05847-z
Abstract: Extracorporeal life support (ECLS) is increasingly used in the management of patients with severe cardiopulmonary disease. Infections are frequently the etiologies underlying the respiratory, and occasionally cardiac, failure that necessitates ECLS. Just as importantly, infections… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jacc.2020.10.036
Abstract: BACKGROUND The decision to implant durable mechanical circulatory systems (MCSs) in patients on extracorporeal life support (ECLS) is challenging due to expected poor outcomes in these patients. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/mat.0000000000000748
Abstract: Extracorporeal life support (ECLS) is a widely used lifesaving technology. Whether ECLS results in immune dysregulation is unclear. This study’s aim was to examine whether ECLS affected innate immune response. All patients placed on ECLS… read more here.
