The cardiac involvement in Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is still under evaluation, especially severe COVID-19-related Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). was assessed by serial troponin levels and echocardiograms 28 consecutive patients with COVID-19 ARDS consecutively admitted to our Intensive Care Unit from March 1 31. Twenty-eight (aged 61.7 ± 10 years, males 79%). majority mechanically ventilated (86%) 4 (14%) required veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. As of 31,...
Background: We evaluated the impact of noninvasive respiratory support (NRS) and invasive mechanical ventilation duration before venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO) on weaning from ECMO survival. Methods: In a retrospective single-center study, we studied subjects with COVID-19 ARDS treated VV-ECMO. The were divided analyzed according to cut-off NRS, ventilation, total support. Results: identified NRS 4 days, 5 8 days. Weaning VV-ECMO was observed in 63% (15/24) ≤ days...
Objectives Out of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is worldwide quite a common disease, whose mortality still remains high. We aimed at assessing the number potential donors after OHCA in tertiary center with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECPR) and uncontrolled donation circulatory death (uDCD) programs. Methods In our single center, prospective, observational study (June 2016 to December 2018), we included all consecutive patients aged or less 65 years. Results Our series 134 patients....
Abstract The use of donation after circulatory death ( DCD ) has increased significantly to face the persistent mismatch between supply and demand organs for transplantation. While controlled (c) s have warm ischemic time WIT that can be estimated, is often inexact extended in uncontrolled uDCD ), making assessment injury difficult. We aimed at investigating effects cold ischemia on potential donor organ damage course nRP by assessing dynamic variations transaminases creatinine values 17...
Better preservation and evaluation of kidneys from donors after circulatory death serve to increase the number available for transplantation hypothermic machine perfusion has been shown decrease ischemia reperfusion injury delayed graft function. Data on relation between hemodynamic parameters during function in are so far scarce not univocal. We aimed at assessing whether measured (flow, mean pressure, renal resistance) associated with 26 retrieved uncontrolled death. In our series,...
Abstract Background Effectiveness of uncontrolled donation after circulatory death (uDCD) has been recently reported to be 75% according data coming from some European countries in 2016, but few are date available on this topic. Methods We assessed the utilization rate (as percentage donors who were converted into actual donors) 37 uDCDs consecutively enrolled at our Center (Careggi Teaching Hospital) June 2016 2019. Results In three cases, family did not give consent for (3/37, 8.1%). Among...
