Objective:To summarize the establishment and management experience of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) rapid response team, and explore a more efficient rescue mode.Methods:From January 2015 to September 2020, 85 patients treated with ECMO in Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University were selected as the research objects. Thirty-eight patients treated with conventional ECMO from January 2015 to December 2019 were selected as the control group, and 47 patients treated with ECMO rapid response team from January 2020 to September 2020 were selected as the experimental group. The differences in team preparation time, catheterization time, treatment success rate, incidence of complications and equipment failure frequency between the two groups were compared.Results:There were no significant differences in gender, age or disease types between the two groups. The team preparation time and catheterization time of the experimental group were significantly shorter than those of the control group [team preparation time (minutes): 31.79±6.10 vs. 67.16±30.49, catheterization time (minutes): 40.62±7.13 vs. 84.89±19.29], and the incidence of complications was significantly lower than that of the control group [4.3% (2/47) vs. 21.1% (8/38)], and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). Conclusion:ECMO rapid response team can shorten the rescue preparation time, reduce the occurrence of complications, improve the team treatment efficiency, and provide ideas for emergency and critical patients.

OBJECTIVE:
To evaluate and summarize the relevant evidence of anticoagulation and bleeding risk management in patients with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), and provide the evidence-based basis for the management of anticoagulation and bleeding during ECMO treatment.
METHODS:
According to the evidence "6S" pyramid model, all evidence on ECMO anticoagulation management and bleeding risk was searched in relevant databases, organizations and guideline websites at home and abroad. Evidence types included guidelines, expert consensus, systematic evaluation, Meta-analysis and original study. The search time limit was from May 31, 2012 to May 31, 2022. Two researchers with evidence-based research background conducted independent literature quality evaluation of the retrieved evidence, and the evidence that met the quality standards was extracted and summarized based on the opinions of industry experts.
RESULTS:
A total of 315 articles were retrieved, and 13 articles were included, including 3 guidelines, 6 expert consensus, and 4 Meta-analysis. A total of 27 best evidences were summarized from 7 aspects, including the selection of ECMO anticoagulation, anticoagulation in priming, anticoagulation in operation, anticoagulation monitoring, bleeding and treatment, thrombosis and treatment, and prevention and management of terminal limb ischemia.
CONCLUSIONS
This study provides evidence-based basis for bleeding prevention and anticoagulant management in ECMO patients. It is recommended to selectively apply the best evidence after evaluating the clinical environmental conditions of medical institutions, so as to improve the prognosis of ECMO patients.

Objective:To evaluate and summarize the best evidence for early rehabilitation of adults with veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO).Methods:Evidence on early rehabilitation of adult VV-ECMO patients was searched by computer from 7 English literature databases [PubMed database, cumulative index to nursing and allied health literature (CINAHL), Embase database, Cochrane library database, UpToDate clinical consultant, BMJ best clinical practice, JBI database], 5 Chinese literature databases (China biomedical literature database, China Yimai Tong, China national knowledge infrastructure, Wanfang data, VIP database), 5 guideline networks [National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE), Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network (SIGN), National Guideline Clearinghouse (NGC), Guidelines International Network (GIN), China Guide Network] and 2 professional association websites [Extracorporeal Life Support Organization (ELSO), Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine]. The search period is from January 2011 to December 2021. The appraisal of guidelines for research and evaluation Ⅱ (AGREE ) and JBI 2014 quality assessment tools were used to evaluate the quality of inclusion guidelines, systematic reviews, expert consensus and original studies, respectively, and to extract and summarize the best evidence for early rehabilitation of adults with VV-ECMO.Results:A total of 2 guidelines, 2 expert consensuses, 2 systematic reviews and 8 original studies [including 1 randomized controlled trial (RCT), 1 non-randomized controlled study, 3 cohort studies and 3 case reports] were included. The evidence was summarized from 9 aspects including the necessity of early rehabilitation, rehabilitation initiation time, rehabilitation location, pre-rehabilitation preparation, pre-rehabilitation assessment, rehabilitation method, rehabilitation frequency and duration, rehabilitation process monitoring and effect evaluation,and finally 24 pieces of the best evidence were summarized.Conclusion:Early rehabilitation of adults with VV-ECMO is safe and feasible. The summary of the best evidence can provide evidence-based guidance for clinical medical staff to reasonably carry out early rehabilitation.
