a polyvinyl chloride tubing, usually coated with unfractionated heparin. The blood ow is controlled with magnetically actuated centrifugal pumps, replacing formerly used roller pumps, Fig.21.2 [15, 16]. Due to a potentially developing negative pres­sure, a cautious approach is needed when inserting or removing indwelling cathe­ters, or performing interventions which include the opening of blood vessels, as this could lead to aspiration of air by the ECMO system [14, 17].
Gas-exchange devices evolved from the direct air-blood contact systems to the membrane-based oxygenators, fullling the patient’s need for oxygen supplementa­tion and the carbon dioxide removal. Since the beginning of the twenty-rst century, polymethylpentene hollow ber membranes are gaining popularity, as gas is con­veyed through bundles and the blood circulates around the hollow bers (Fig.21.3) [14, 18].
The portion of oxygen in the gas mixture is dosed depending on the patient’s need and may be supplemented up to 100%. Increasing or decreasing of the sweep gas ow will increase or reduce the carbon dioxide clearance, not altering oxygen­ation. The gas-blood ow ratio is normally adjusted to maintain normal levels of carbon dioxide in the blood (normocapnia) [14]. Due to its structure, the oxygenator presents one of the most common locations for blood clots to form. Therefore, the regular check of the capacity and integrity of the oxygenator, including the search for clots, is obligatory in everyday practice.
Finally, the heat exchanger prevents circuit-related heat loss, giving the possibil­ity of targeted temperature management (i.e., rewarming of accidental hypothermia, treatment of metabolic crisis, therapeutic hypothermia after cardiac arrest, etc.). It may be a separate component or integrated into the gas-exchange device, commonly based on hollow ber bundles (nonpermeable) with circulating water (Fig.21.3) [14].

ECMO Indications andCongurations
According to the Extracorporeal Life Support Organization (ELSO), ECMO should be initiated in selected patients with cardiorespiratory failure when the mortality risk reaches 80%, and its initiation should be considered in cases with a high mortal­ity risk (more than 50%) [14].
Two main congurations include the venoarterial (VA-ECMO) and venovenous ECMO (VV-ECMO). The VA-ECMO can be used as a mechanical circulatory sup­port or a combination of both circulatory and pulmonary support. The VA-ECMO circuit consists of venous drainage to a circuit pump and an oxygenator, with the return of oxygenated blood to the arterial system. Cannulation can be central (i.e., failure to wean from cardiopulmonary bypass) or peripheral (i.e., eCPR). In the case of central cannulation, access is obtained by direct cannulation of the aorta and the right atrium. For peripheral cannulation, any large peripheral artery may be used
21 Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation
https://t.me/med1917
with the femoral artery being the most common choice. For the venous drainage, at least one femoral catheter is advanced into the right atrium [19].
The main indications for VA-ECMO include postcardiotomy cardiac failure, myocardial infarction, acute-on-chronic heart failure, rewarming after accidental hypothermia, bridge to heart transplantation, myocarditis, pulmonary embolism, cardiac arrest, refractory ventricular arrhythmias, cardiac trauma, sepsis, ARDS with severe cardiac failure, or any other cause of a refractory cardiogenic shock [14].
The VV-ECMO can be used to support an isolated pulmonary failure, without any need for circulatory support. The circuit consists of venous drainage to a circuit pump and an oxygenator, with oxygenated blood returning to the venous system. The main indications include severe ARDS, severe air leak syndromes, resistant hypercapnia, bridge to lung transplantation, difcult airway management, or any other cause of acute hypoxemic respiratory failure unresponsive to conventional therapy [14].
343
Extended ECMO Indications andContraindications
Extended ECMO indications present the use of extracorporeal life support in case of trauma, especially in cases of posttraumatic ARDS or transfusion-associated acute lung injury, high risk of airway compression (i.e., mediastinal masses), airway surgery, pulmonary thrombendarterectomy, accidental hypothermia, etc. [19]. Over the last years, even patients in septic shock could benet from ECMO, if the hemo­dynamic compromise is mainly related to secondary myocardial dysfunction rather than distributive vasoplegia [20]. However, this option is reserved only for carefully selected patients. Another extended indication is rapid rewarming in case of cardiac instability due of accidental hypothermia. Finally, the use of ECMO in awake patients awaiting lung transplantation is being described increasingly, reducing the need for prolonged intubation, mechanical ventilation, and analgosedation.
Given the above, most contraindications for ECMO are rather relative than abso­lute, as age and size of patient or high risk of systemic bleeding under anticoagula­tion. Recent or expanding CNS hemorrhage, non-recoverable comorbidity, and disseminated malignancy remain contraindications for ECMO and have to be care­fully weighed against possible benets in terms of outcome [19, 21].
Anticoagulation Strategies During ECMO Support
The exposure of blood to articial surfaces of the extracorporeal circuit and surgical trauma can initiate and propagate inammatory and coagulation processes, leading to the need for therapeutic anticoagulation during ECMO support [1214].
344
https://t.me/med1917
Systemic anticoagulation is considered the standard of care, crucial in the reduc­tion of thrombosis risk and ECMO circuit components failure. Unfractionated hepa­rin (UFH) is the primary anticoagulant [14, 22]. However, systemic anticoagulation carries a risk of serious bleeding, with the potential for permanent injury or even death [2328]. On the other hand, thromboembolic events may occur as well, thus requiring careful therapeutic adjustments and follow-up [2931].
In the case of the heparin-induced thrombocytopenia type II (HIT II) or heparin resistance, an alternative anticoagulation approach may be employed. When the HIT II is suspected, heparin should be stopped immediately, and heparin-coated components need to be removed. Furthermore, anticoagulation using direct throm­bin inhibitors (i.e., argatroban, bivalirudin) or factor Xa inhibitors (i.e., rivaroxaban) should be considered [32]. Failure to continue anticoagulation in patients with HIT II could lead to a clinically signicant thromboembolism, as this patient population is prone to thromboembolism [32].
In the last decade, evidence on the so-called anticoagulation-free ECMO support is emerging, with comparable incidences of thromboembolic events in anticoagulation- free ECMO patients compared to the standard ones [33]. Due to inconsistency in reporting, the authors could not draw any denitive conclusion in regard of hemorrhage [33]. The results of ongoing prospective studies (A-FREE ECMO-NCT04273607; SAFE-ECMO-NCT04997265; and RATE-NCT04536272) should help tailor future recommendations regarding anticoagulation.
Moreover, there is extensive research on the methods to reduce the need for sys­temic anticoagulation, including alternative approaches. Heparin-coated circuits are considered as the standard of care in many centers worldwide [34, 35]. However, the optimistic introduction of UFH-coated circuits did not lead to the omission or reduction of systemic anticoagulation. The use of citrate anticoagulation, as in con­tinuous renal replacement therapy, is limited by the low clearance of citrate, restrict­ing its use to blood ows below 200mL/min, being signicantly below the ow needed for ECMO.
Despite signicant progress in the research on novel systemic anticoagulation therapies in the last two decades, the ideal anticoagulatory approach or drug are still not available. The ideal anticoagulant should have predictable anticoagulant effects and pharmacokinetics, with both oral and parenteral formulation, wide therapeutic range, eliminating the need for monitoring, with an available antidote and a rapid onset and offset of action, and lastly an affordable price [36]. Emerging preclinical data on novel anticoagulants and the role of antibodies targeting factors XI and XII showed good safety proles and sufcient efcacy. However, there is still no evi­dence regarding their safe use in humans [37, 38].

Monitoring ofAnticoagulation
Different invitro modalities can aid anticoagulation monitoring and guidance.
The majority of centers employ serial measurements of the activated clotting time (ACT) and the activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), both being fast

and affordable methods [39]. Due to intrinsic limitations of both, ACT and aPTT, alternative methods as measurement of Anti-Xa levels and viscoelastic methods are being increasingly used (i.e., rotational thromboelastometry—ROTEM®, thrombo­elastography system-TEG®, viscoelastometry analyzer—ClotPro®, etc.) [13, 40]. An overview of the most commonly used anticoagulants with the mechanism of action and monitoring methods is presented in Fig.21.4. Unfortunately the discor­dance between different methods is still common [13].
Complications andMortality
Unfavorable outcomes are not unusual, generating debate about the real value of ECMO [22, 4145]. Patient-related complications include acute renal failure, bleeding, thromboembolic events, sepsis, and pneumonia [22]. The circuit-related adverse events include formation of circuit clots and thrombi, with potentially dev­astating consequences. Finally, life-threatening acute mechanical failure, circuit fractures, or gas embolism are further, rather seldom circuit-related adverse events [19].
Within the patient-related complications, renal failure (51%) with the need for renal replacement therapy (44%) and hemorrhage (49%) are the most frequent adverse events during VA-ECMO support. Other frequently reported complications include pneumonia (24%), sepsis (18%), and thrombosis (13%) [22]. However, the approximate rates of complications are heterogeneously reported, making any sys­tematization of the current evidence at least complex. Most of the reports originate from retrospective studies, with selection bias and potential underestimation as the main limitations [22].
Acute renal failure is commonly seen as a representation of a multiple organ failure, caused by a reduction in renal oxygen delivery and/or inammatory kidney damage, with poor outcomes [46, 47]. Furthermore, bleeding presents one of the most common and serious ECMO complications, associated with an increased mor­tality. The identication of risk factors and predictors for adverse events during and shortly after ECMO support is subjected to intensive research, but strong evidence on potentially modiable factors is still missing [19, 22, 23, 25, 27, 48, 49].
346
https://t.me/med1917
Depending on the selected population and bleeding denition, the reported rates of hemorrhage range from 16% to 46% [22]. Bleeding events occur mostly within the rst 3days of ECMO initiation, which is the reason why some centers employ a modied (reduced) anticoagulation protocol in the early ECMO phase. Given the above, early recognition of complications and their management, including antico­agulation monitoring, are crucial in the rst days of ECMO support.
In regard to thromboembolic events, ECMO patients are at an increased risk independent of the modality (VA-ECMO vs. VV-ECMO) [31]. Patients receiving VA-ECMO are frequently postcardiotomy patients, with central cannulation and sternotomy. Therefore, the risk of bleeding may be increased due to the presence of surgical wounds. On the other hand, overcautious initiation of the anticoagulatory protocol may increase the risk of thrombosis. Moreover, patients with respiratory failure may suffer distinct thromboinammation, a known procoagulant condition triggered by hyperinammation [12, 5054]. However, the reported incidence of thromboembolic events remains low, or underestimated due to unidentied throm­bosis in asymptomatic patients. The majority of studies reporting on thrombosis are limited by their retrospective nature. Therefore, the true incidence of thromboem­bolic events remains unknown. Finally, the lack of standardized denitions for thromboembolic events, or outcomes in ECMO patients in general, makes the anal­ysis of the available evidence complicated [31].
S. Rajsic et al.
ECMO Mortality
Based on the data from more than 84,000 adult patients, ELSO reported an in­hospital mortality of 55% (VA-ECMO), and 42% (VV-ECMO). The highest rates of mortality (70%) are reported in case of eCPR [11].
Finally, in the CESAR trial, which compared conventional ventilatory support against ECMO support for severe ARDS, the survival without severe disability was signicantly increased in the case of ECMO use [55]. However, a similar trial for patients suffering refractory cardiac failure is still lacking.
ECMO Weaning
Weaning from ECMO support should be guided by the daily clinical, echocardio­graphic, and hemodynamic evaluation of the cardiac and lung function recovery. The initial cause of cardiorespiratory failure should be resolved or at least corrected before the ECMO weaning trial is initiated.
Ensuing recovery of cardiac function, after at least of 24–48h of VA-ECMO sup­port, a weaning trial may be considered. In this phase, the arterial curve should show pulsatility, with a mean arterial blood pressure of at least 60mmHg (with or without inotropic support), and all metabolic disturbances should be corrected
21 Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation
https://t.me/med1917
according to the arterial blood gas measurements [56, 57]. In case of combined cardiorespiratory failure, before weaning initiation, the lung function should be evaluated. Otherwise, conversion to VV-ECMO may be considered.
The weaning strategy includes the gradual reduction of pump ow (0.5–1L/min) over a period of hours, under hemodynamic and echocardiographic control. As the VA-ECMO circuit ow decreases, the preload will increase with consequent after­load reduction, supporting increase in cardiac ejection. If the cardiac function is successfully recovered to meet a satisfying organ and limb perfusion, further reduc­tion of pump ow is warranted. However, due to ow reduction in the weaning phase, the increased risk of thrombosis should be considered [14].
Identication of predictors for successful weaning is still a subject of ongoing research, and consensus is missing. However, multidisciplinary approach with the repeated evaluation of cardiac function including the ejection fraction of at least 20%–25% are important factors for ECMO support weaning and decannulation [14, 5761].
In case of VV-ECMO support, the recovery of lung function may take more time compared to cardiac failure. The improvement in patient chest radiography, reduced airway resistance, increased lung compliance, and improving oxygen saturation with lower ECMO blood and/or swap gas ows together with reduced venous oxy­gen saturation may indicate lung recovery.
In these cases ECMO weaning may be considered when a satisfying pulmonary gas exchange can be guaranteed under a lung protective ventilatory support (i.e., fraction of inspired oxygen of 30–60%, positive end expiratory pressure of 5–10 cmH2O, peak inspiratory pressure of 25–30 cmH2O) [14]. The monitoring during VV-ECMO weaning should include evaluation of respiratory mechanics, serial arterial blood gas measurements, and hemodynamics. If all criteria for ECMO weaning are met, pump ow is stopped, and the cannulas are clamped before decannulation.
Finally, there are diverse ECMO weaning approaches, and each center should implement a local operating procedure for ECMO weaning until the evidence from randomized trials is available.
347
Future Perspectives
Despite continuous research in this eld, it remains difcult to identify modiable factors. Hemorrhage or high disease severity scores may be important for timely intervention to prevent the occurrence of complications, potentially reducing mor­bidity and mortality.
The adaptation of systemic anticoagulation remains the most approachable fac­tor; however, the ideal anticoagulant or monitoring tool are still lacking. Surface coating is promising; however, it neither eradicates the need for anticoagulation nor it reduces the risk of hemorrhage [13, 51, 52].
348
https://t.me/med1917
The use of aPTT as a main monitoring tool of systemic anticoagulation is increas­ingly questioned, and alternatives are being introduced. Validation for existing rec­ommendations on the aPTT-guided protocol are still lacking [13, 62, 63]. Anti-factor-Xa for UFH monitoring is based on preliminary evidence [6467].
The increasing use of ECMO for extended indications, reduction of contraindi­cations, and patient individualized approach will lead to further popularization of this life support technology. Further adaptations and modications of ECMO cir­cuits and systems may lead to new indications, supporting the evolution of awake ECMO.Moreover, this will be accompanied by more sophisticated therapies, and older and sicker patients will be assessed for ECMO support. Therefore, meticulous weighting of the risks and benets will become even more important in future.
S. Rajsic et al.
Articial Intelligence
Articial intelligence in medicine is becoming an unavoidable tool for patient man­agement, including a growing interest in the use for ECMO support. It can be useful in providing real-time data, prediction algorithms, and optimization of ECMO sup­port management, with potential to reduce the risk of adverse events and conse­quently improving patient outcomes.
Algorithms using articial intelligence can be built on large databases containing patient demographics, basic disease, comorbidities, medical history, and outcomes. This may be used to identify patterns and predict patients being at higher risk of poor outcome and thus further adjust the treatment for each patient’s individual needs. Moreover, it could be used for the monitoring of patient’s vital parameters (arterial blood pressure, blood oxygen saturation, or carbon dioxide levels), with algorithms analyzing real-time data. The prediction of worsening of vital parame­ters may facilitate and accelerate the adjustment of the ECMO support, for example, in case of constant decrease of the patient’s oxygen saturation, or hypercapnia, such programs could alert the physician to adjust the ECMO system. This holds espe­cially true in times of strained personal resources.
Finally, articial intelligence has the potential to revolutionize the management of critically ill patients. Developed algorithms may identify patterns and predict outcomes, alerting health workers on potential optimization of care. With the con­stant development in the eld of machine learning, we can expect signicant bene­ts in critical care medicine of the future.
Conclusion
The use of ECMO support is becoming more common, and centers of excellence with higher volumes will present the safest places to indicate and manage this high­risk life support modality.
