Abstract:
Objective To explore the clinical value of fibrinogen-albumin-ratio (FAR) in adult extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) hemorrhage. Methods The clinical data of adult patients receiving ECMO in the West China Hospital from 2018 to 2020 were analyzed retrospectively. Patients were divided into a bleeding group and a non-bleeding group based on whether they experienced bleeding after ECMO. Logistic regression analysis was used to study the relationship between FAR and bleeding, as well as risk factors for death. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and area under the curve (AUC) were used to analyze the predictive ability of FAR. According to the optimal cut-off value of FAR for predicting hemorrhage, patients were divided into a high-risk group and a low-risk group, and the occurrence of bleeding was compared between the two groups. Results A total of 125 patients were enrolled in this study, including 85 males and 40 females, aged 46.00 (31.50, 55.50) years. Among them, 58 patients received veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) and 67 patients received veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO). There were 49 patients having bleeding, and the lactate level was higher (P=0.026), the platelet count before ECMO initiation and 24 h after ECMO initiation was lower (P=0.031, 0.020), the fibrinogen level 24 h after ECMO initiation was lower (P=0.049), and the proportion of myocarditis patients was higher (P=0.017) in the bleeding group than those of the non-bleeding group. In the subgroup analysis of ECMO mode, the higher D-Dimer, lactate level and lower FAR before and 24 h after ECMO initiation were associated with bleeding in the VA-ECMO group (P=0.017, 0.011, 0.033, 0.005). The 24 h FAR was independently correlated with bleeding (P=0.048), and AUC was 0.714. The cut-off value was 55.73. According to this optimal cut-off value, 25 patients were divided into the high-risk group (≤55.73) and 33 into the low-risk group (>55.73). There was a higher incidence of bleeding in the high-risk group compared to the low-risk group (unadjusted P=0.002; P=0.013 for multivariable adjustment). In the VV-ECMO group, the relationship between FAR and bleeding events was not significant (P>0.05). Conclusion Low 24 h FAR is an independent risk factor for bleeding in VA-ECMO patients, and the diagnostic cut-off value is 55.73.
