DOI: 10.1016/j.medin.2016.12.013
Abstract: OBJECTIVE Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) affords mechanical circulatory assistance associated to high mortality. However, weaning from such mechanical support may not imply improved short- or long-term survival. This study describes the characteristics and evolution of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/mcc.0000000000000837
Abstract: Purpose of review Cardiogenic shock (CS) therapy involving catecholamines, inotropes, fluids and revascularization is often insufficient, and short-term mortality remains 50%. Different treatment algorithms and mechanical circulatory support devices (MCS) have been increasingly used in… read more here.
