Extracorporeal Life Support Following Thoracic Organ Transplantation
TLDR
The primary focus of this chapter is the use of ECLS after thoracic transplantation.
CASE 7--2014 Rescue therapy with early extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for primary graft dysfunction after bilateral lung transplantation.
TLDR
A case of severe PGD after bilateral LTX that was managed successfully with early ECMO is presented and presented in a multidisciplinary fashion to encompass perspectives from the entire perioperative management team for LTX.
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation post lung transplantation
TLDR
Advances in technology and management strategies continue to increase the effectiveness of ECMO in supporting the failing pulmonary allograft.
Extracorporeal support, during and after lung transplantation: the history of an idea.
TLDR
It was demonstrated that, although the prevalence of complications remains higher in supported patients, there may be no difference in long-term graft function between supported and non-supported patients.
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in lung transplantation: Indications, techniques and results
TLDR
The current evidence on the role of ECMO in the different phases of lung transplantation is assessed, while analyzing different studies on pre, intra- and post-operative utilization of this extracorporeal support.
Advances in Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation in the Setting of Lung Transplantation
TLDR
A number of advanced techniques for the application of ECMO in order to optimize the pulmonary transplant procedure are gaining traction and with ECMO’s expanded role in lung transplantation, so also has come a new set of technical and ethical challenges that must also be overcome.
Extracorporeal life support during and after bilateral sequential lung transplantation in patients with pulmonary artery hypertension.
TLDR
In the experience, ECMO may be considered as the first choice circulatory support for lung transplantation and the prolonged ECMO strategy is very effective to reduce incidence of primary graft dysfunction even in CPB supported patients.
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation following lung transplantation: indications and survival.
Bridge to lung transplantation and rescue post-transplant: the expanding role of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.
TLDR
This review will address the various aspects related to ECMO use as a bridge to lung transplantation as well as a rescue post-transplant in the treatment of PGD, emphasize newer technologies related toECMO use, examine recent observational studies and randomized trials of EC MO use before and after lung transplation, and reflect upon the own institutional experience with the use of ECMO.

Extra corporeal membrane oxygenation after pediatric cardiac surgery: a 10 year experience.
TLDR
A significantly improved survival rate is revealed with the use of integrated ECMO-CPB circuit and early time of intervention rather than using ECMO as a last resort in the management.
A Review of the Fundamental Principles and Evidence Base in the Use of Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) in Critically Ill Adult Patients
TLDR
The evidence is reviewed and the fundamental steps in initiating, adjusting, troubleshooting, and terminating ECMO are described so as to familiarize the intensivist with this modality.
Use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in pediatric thoracic organ transplantation.
TLDR
Long-term outcomes among those undergoing heart transplantation after support with an extracorporeal membrane oxygenator are comparable with those of patients not receiving extracorporation, particularly in patients undergoing lung transplants.
