Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Incidence of severe bleeding during ECMO

    The ratio of the number of patients with severe bleeding complications to the total number of cases in each group.

    Up to 14 days.

Secondary Outcomes (10)

  • Incidence of thrombosis during ECMO

    Up to 14 days.

  • Bleeding-free days during ECMO

    Up to 14 days.

  • Oxygenator replacement frequency

    Up to 14 days.

  • The incidence of ECMO dysfunction

    Up to 14 days.

  • The average amount of red, plasma, cryoprecipitate, fibrinogen, and platelets per person per ECMO day

    Up to 14 days.

  • +5 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Nafamostat Mesylate

EXPERIMENTAL

VV-ECMO patients were given continuous anticoagulation with nafamostat mesylate, coagulation function was monitored every 6 hours, and APTT was maintained at 1-1.75 times the upper limit of normal detection until reaching the study endpoints, including 14 days after enrollment, 24 hours after withdrawal from ECMO, or any switch to ECMO mode during ECMO treatment.

Drug: Nafamostat Mesylate

Unfractionated Heparin

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

VV-ECMO patients were given continuous anticoagulation with unfractionated heparin, coagulation function was monitored every 6 hours, and APTT was maintained at 1-1.75 times the upper limit of normal detection until reaching the study endpoints, including 14 days after enrollment, 24 hours after withdrawal from ECMO, or any switch to ECMO mode during ECMO treatment.

Drug: Unfractionated Heparin

Interventions

ECMO patients were given continuous anticoagulation with nafamostat mesylate, coagulation function was monitored every 6 hours, and APTT was maintained at 1-1.75 times the upper limit of normal detection until reaching the study endpoints, including 14 days after enrollment, 24 hours after withdrawal from ECMO, or any switch to ECMO mode during ECMO treatment.

Nafamostat Mesylate

ECMO patients were given continuous anticoagulation with unfractionated heparin, coagulation function was monitored every 6 hours, and APTT was maintained at 1-1.75 times the upper limit of normal detection until reaching the study endpoints, including 14 days after enrollment, 24 hours after withdrawal from ECMO, or any switch to ECMO mode during ECMO treatment.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 80 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients aged \>= 18 and \<= 80 years;
  • Successfully established ECMO (VA/VV) treatment by percutaneous puncture due to cardiogenic shock or respiratory failure;
  • Anticoagulation required during ECMO treatment; Before the establishment of ECMO, the APTT test value was within the normal range, and the platelets were not less than 80G/L;
  • Within 48 hours of ECMO establishment, APTT test results were between 1 and 1.75 times the upper limit of normal, PLT\>80 G/L, and no serious bleeding and thrombosis;
  • Sign the informed consent.

You may not qualify if:

  • Pregnant;
  • Bleeding risk or active bleeding;
  • Pre-existing diseases requiring long-term anticoagulation before ECMO: pulmonary embolism, deep vein thrombosis, intraventricular thrombosis, atrial fibrillation, etc.;
  • Long-term use of anticoagulants before ECMO;
  • Antiplatelet drugs were used before ECMO;
  • Allergy to heparin, nafamostat mesylate;
  • Repeated puncture at the same site for more than 3 times;
  • Expected ECMO treatment time \< 3 days;
  • Patients with an expected survival period of less than 48 hours;
  • Patients undergoing extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation;
  • Burn patients; Blood purification treatment using polyacrylonitrile membrane filter;
  • Heterozygous ECMO mode or ECMO therapy solely for CO2 removal;
