Abstract:
Septic shock is the most serious type of sepsis.Despite detailed treatment recommendations at domestic and abroad guidelines, some patients with septic shock have no response to treatment, and progress rapidly and develop into multiple organ failure leading to death.The recent guidelines and consensus of septic shock recommended extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO)as the last resort rescue for children with septic shock.However, worldwide consensus for ECMO application in children with septic shock is not available at the present time.Clinical conditions that ECMO should be initiated, ECMO catheterization method and prognosis of children received ECMO support are still controversial.The aim of this article was to review ECMO application in children with septic shock.
