Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
correlation between native cardiac output/ Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation flow ratio and regional cerebral tissue oxygen saturation
from date of randomization until the date of ending the ECMO support (assessed up to 100 weeks)
Eligibility Criteria
patient, aged more than 18 years old with cardiogenic shock unresponsive to conventional medical treatment and supported with VA ECMO.
You may qualify if:
- Age ≥ 18 years
- Patients supported with veno-arterial ECMO.
- Presence of a pulmonary artery catheter.
- Expected ECMO support ≥ 24 hours.
- Patient with good echocardiographic window.
You may not qualify if:
- Pre-existing severe neurological injury (e.g. massive stroke, traumatic brain injury).
- Intracranial pathology affecting NIRS reliability.
- Facial or scalp conditions preventing NIRS probe placement.
- ECMO duration \< 48 hours.
- Poor echocardiographic window.
