ELSO Guidelines
V-V Indications
Respiratory support-consider if mortality >50% and recommended if mortality >80%
ARDS/hypoxemic respiratory failure
PaO2 to FiO2 ratio less than 80, despite salvage therapies for 6+ hrs
Uncompensated hypercapnia (ph<7.15 despite measures)
Hypercapneic respiratory failure (severe COPD/asthma exacerbation)
Lung transplant candidates
Severe air leak patients
(7)VV-ECMO
CESAR study inclusion criteria (Lancet 2009; 374: 1351–63)
Indications:
age ≥16 years
potentially reversible severe acute respiratory failure
no limitation to on-going life-sustaining treatment
Murray score ≥3.0 (consider referral if ≥2.5 and rapid clinical deterioration) OR
(8)VV ECMO
V-V Contraindications
No absolute contraindications but the following are associated with a poor outcome
Mechanical ventilation with high support (Fio2>90% and/or P-plat >30 for days)
CNS hemorrhage
Pharmacologic immunosuppression (ANC<400)
Non-recoverable comorbidity
(9)VV-ECMO
Contraindications (CESAR):
intracranial bleed (current or recent)
other contraindication to heparinization
(10)ECMO
VV Management
Adjust FiO2 for PaO2 (oxygenation)
Adjust Sweep Flow for PCO2 management (ventilation)
(11)ECMO
Ventilator Management Goals V-V
(Ventilator)
FiO2 < 40% and peak pressure <25
Can use either volume control (2-4cc/kg/IBW) or pressure control ventilation to achieve goal

(17)Study Overview
• This trial compared extracorporeal membrane oxygenation with non-ECMO ventilator care in patients with severe ARDS
• There was no significant between-group difference in 60-day mortality • Interpretation was made difficult by crossovers from control to ECMO
(18)Enrollment, Randomization, and Follow-up of the Trial Participants.

of the Trial.
(20)End Points.
(21)(22)So What Are Our REAL Goals?
Support patient!!!
Limit ventilator induced lung injury (remember all positive pressure is somewhat harmful)
Mobilize patient to limit impact of critical illness and hopefully decrease extent of post critical
illness syndrome
(23)Do You Even Need the Vent?
Mechanical ventilation (MV) is invasive MV delivers positive pressure which may
compromise the right heart
MV frequently requires some form of sedation which can be harmful
(24)Consider Extubation?
(25)(26)How Did Our Case Patient Do?
Started on VV ECMO
(27)(28)Conclusions
VV-ECMO should be part of comprehensive respiratory failure algorithm
