Abstract:
The complications of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation ( ECMO ) include technical relevance complications and physical relevance complications. The former mainly includes dysfunction of oxygenation,cannula-related problems,technical relevance hemolysis,blood clots of oxygenator or rest of the circuit. The latter includes hemorrhage and embolism,culture-confirmed infection,renal failure and neurologic complications. One of the most reported complications of ECMO is hemorrhage. It′s important for reducing mortality and improving prognosis through stricting with the indications of ECMO,strengthening team cooper-ation,closely clinical monitoring and early identifying complications. In this paper,we introduced complica-tions of ECMO as well as how to prevent and treat it.
