2018年9月18日 · Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO)—also referred to as extracorporeal life support—is a form of temporary mechanical circulatory support and simultaneous extracorporeal gas exchange.
VA ECMO — learnECMO
V-A ECMO is very similar to cardiopulmonary bypass use during cardiac surgery and can be considered as longer term cardiopulmonary bypass. It may be used at low flows (2-3 L/min) as partial assistance to native cardiac output or at higher flows (4-6 L/min) completely replacing native cardiac output.
Types of ECMO | Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation | ECLS
There are two types of ECMO. Venoarterial (VA) ECMO can be used for heart and lung support, while venovenous (VV) ECMO is used for lung support only. The ECMO team will decide which type will help your loved one the most, based on his or her specific illness.
