Abstract
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has been widely used as a clinical bridge for cardiopulmonary failure. We recently used combined veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) and haemoperfusion to successfully treat a patient with acute aconitine poisoning. The patient was admitted to the Emergency Intensive Care Unit (EICU) in a state of coma and shock. Her received comprehensive treatment, including haemoperfusion and anti-shock therapy. 40 minutes after admission, the patient experienced sudden respiratory and cardiac arrest. After conventional defibrillation and cardiopulmonary resuscitation proved ineffective, veno-arterial ECMO was immediately initiated. One hour after initiation of VA-ECMO, the patient's heart rhythm stabilised to sinus rhythm. After 33 h of supportive care, the patient was awake, haemodynamically stable and the VA-ECMO was successfully removed. The patient made full recovery 7 days after admission.
期刊介绍:
Perfusion is an ISI-ranked, peer-reviewed scholarly journal, which provides current information on all aspects of perfusion, oxygenation and biocompatibility and their use in modern cardiac surgery. The journal is at the forefront of international research and development and presents an appropriately multidisciplinary approach to perfusion science.
