DOI: 10.1007/s00134-019-05745-4
Abstract: Echocardiography is currently used to guide and check the correct positioning of veno-venous extra-corporeal membrane oxygenation cannulas, both for cannulation guidance, for daily monitoring and for recirculation assessment. In particular, subcostal and trans-hepatic views easily… read more here.

Continuous veno-venous haemodiafiltration in burns patients: a role in hyperpyrexia
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "European Journal of Plastic Surgery"
DOI: 10.1007/s00238-017-1318-7
Abstract: BackgroundA burn injury results in the release of proinflammatory cytokines and catecholamines, causing a hypermetabolic state which may lead to hyperpyrexia (>40 °C). This risk is increased with concomitant sepsis. Hyperpyrexia is associated with a high… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.amsu.2021.102769
Abstract: Introduction The main manifestation of COVID-19 pneumonia is acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), which in some cases can be more severe, requiring Veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO) to ensure hemostasis. Despite support from Veno-venous extracorporeal… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/mat.0000000000001144
Abstract: Continuous bedside pulse oximetry (SpO2) is universally used to monitor oxygenation for patients supported on veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO). Yet, elevated carboxyhemoglobin (COHb), a known event in VV-ECMO, diminishes the reliability of SpO2. This… read more here.
