Effect of an evidence-based early rehabilitation program on adult patients with venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation: A cohort study. Intensive Crit Care Nurs 2024; 84:103744. [PMID: 39089198 DOI: 10.1016/j.iccn.2024.103744] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/28/2023] [Revised: 05/07/2024] [Accepted: 06/03/2024] [Indexed: 08/03/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess the efficacy of early rehabilitation program for VV-ECMO patients and observe the influence on the respiratory and skeletal muscles. DESIGN A cohort study. SETTING The study was conducted with VVECMO patients in a comprehensive ICU with 32 beds. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Ultrasound measurements were performed on each patients on day 1, 4, 7, 10, and 14, including diaphragmatic excursion (DE), diaphragmatic thickening fraction (DTF), intercostal muscle thickening fraction (ICMTF), thickness of the rectus femoris (RF), thickness of vastus intermedius (VI), and rectus femoris cross-sectional area (RF-CSA). Data on basic characteristics, results of ultrasound measurements, patients outcomes and adverse events were collected. RESULTS 22 patients received usual rehabilitation measures were set as the control group and 23 patients underwent early rehabilitation program were set as the study group. There were no differences in diaphragmatic excursion, diaphragmatic thickening fraction, intercostal muscle thickening fraction, thickness of rectus femoris, thickness of vastus intermedius, rectus femoris cross-sectional area between two groups on day 1 after VV-ECMO treatment (P > 0.05). The variation of diaphragmatic thickening fraction and intercostal muscle thickening fraction decreased on the day 7 and 14 after treatment (P < 0.05). The variation of vastus intermedius thickness and rectus femoris cross-sectional area in the study group was less compared with those in the control group on day 4, 7, 10 and 14. The ECMO duration in the study group was shorter than that in the control group (12.00 [10.00-16.25] days vs. 8.00 [6.00-12.25] days, P = 0.002), but there was no difference in the duration of mechanical ventilation. CONCLUSION Early rehabilitation program can ameliorate muscle atrophy. We recommend implementation of our rehabilitation program in VV-ECMO patients. This program can improve skeletal muscle atrophy and dysfunction in patients with VV-ECMO effectively and perhaps improve quality of life for patients in the future. IMPLICATIONS FOR CLINICAL PRACTICE Early rehabilitation program put higher demands bedside nurses. It requires them to observe conditions of VVECMO patients closely, assess the feasibility of rehabilitation promptly, and monitor for any adverse reactions. Ultrasound measurement is a noninvasive and useful tool to assess muscle atrophy in ICU patients. Early rehabilitation program can improve skeletal muscle atrophy and dysfunction in patients with VV-ECMO effectively.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We planned to synthesize evidence examining the potential efficacy and safety of performing physical rehabilitation and/or mobilization (PR&M) in adult patients receiving extracorporeal life support (ECLS). DATA SOURCES We included any study that compared PR&M to no PR&M or among different PR&M strategies in adult patients receiving any ECLS for any indication and any cannulation. We searched seven electronic databases with no language limitations. STUDY SELECTION AND DATA EXTRACTION Two reviewers, independently and in duplicate, screened all citations for eligibility. We used the Cochrane Risk of Bias 2 and Cochrane Risk Of Bias In Non-randomized Studies of Interventions tools to assess individual study risk of bias. Although we had planned for meta-analysis, this was not possible due to insufficient data, so we used narrative and tabular data summaries for presenting results. We assessed the overall certainty of the evidence for each outcome using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation framework. DATA SYNTHESIS We included 17 studies that enrolled 996 patients. Most studies examined venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and/or venoarterial ECMO as a bridge to recovery in the ICU. We found an uncertain effect of high-intensity/active PR&M on mortality, duration of mechanical ventilation, ICU length of stay, hospital length of stay, or quality of life compared with low-intensity/passive PR&M in patients receiving ECLS (very low certainty due to very serious imprecision). There was similarly an uncertain effect on safety events including clinically important bleeding, spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage, limb ischemia, accidental decannulation, or ECLS circuit dysfunction (very low certainty due to very serious risk of bias and imprecision). CONCLUSIONS Based on the currently available summary of evidence, there is an uncertain effect of high-intensity/active PR&M on patient important outcomes or safety in patients receiving ECLS. Despite indirect data from other populations suggesting potential benefit of high-intensity PR&M in the ICU; further high-quality randomized trials evaluating the benefits and risks of physical therapy and/or mobilization in this population are needed.

Abstract
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a temporary lifesaving treatment for critically ill patients with severe respiratory or cardiac failure. Studies demonstrated the feasibility of in-hospital mobilizing during and after ECMO treatment preventing neuromuscular weakness and impaired physical functioning. Despite more compact mobile ECMO devices, implementation of ambulatory ECMO remains labor-intensive, complex, and challenging. It requires a large multidisciplinary team to carry equipment, monitor and physically support the patient, and to provide a back-up wheelchair in case of fatigue. Moreover, there is no adequate solution to ensure the stability of the patient's cannula and circuit management during ambulation. We developed a system contributing to improvement and innovation of current ambulatory ECMO patient programs. Our modular cart-in-cart system carries necessary ECMO equipment, features an extendable walking frame, and contains a folding seat for patient transport. An adjustable shoulder brace with lockable tubing-connectors enables safe fixation of the blood tubing. ECMOve provides safety, support, and accessibility while performing ambulatory ECMO for both patient and caregiver. Prototype evaluation in a simulated intensive care unit showed feasibility of our design, but needs to be evaluated in clinical care.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Awake Extracorporeal Life Support (aECLS) with active mobilization has gained consensus over time, also within the pediatric community. This individual patient data (IPD) meta-analysis summarizes available evidence on pediatric aECLS, its feasibility, and safety regarding sedation weaning, extubation, and physiotherapy. METHODS PubMed/Medline and Cochrane Database were screened until February 2022. Articles reporting on children (≤18 years) undergoing aECLS were selected. IPD were requested, pooled in a single database, and analyzed using descriptive statistics. Primary outcome was survival to hospital discharge. Secondary outcomes included extubation during ECLS, physiotherapy performed, tracheostomy, and complications. RESULTS Nineteen articles and 65 patients (males:n = 30/59,50.8%) were included. Age ranged from 2 days to 17 years. ECLS configurations included veno-venous (n = 42/65, 64.6%), veno-arterial (n = 18/65, 27.7%) and other ECLS settings (n = 5/65, 7.7%). Exclusive neck cannulation was performed in 51/65 (78.5%) patients. Extubation or tracheostomy during ECLS was reported in 66.2% (n = 43/65) and 27.7% (n = 18/65) of patients, respectively. Physiotherapy was reported as unspecified physical activity (n = 34/63, 54%), mobilization in bed (n = 15/63, 23.8%), ambulation (n = 14/63, 22.2%). Complications were reported in 60.3% (n = 35/58) of patients, including hemorrhagic (36.2%), mechanical (17.2%), or pulmonary (17.2%) issues, and need for reintubation (15.5%). Survival at discharge was 81.5% (n = 53/65). CONCLUSION Awake ECLS strategy with active physiotherapy can be applied in children from neonatal age. Ambulation is also possible in selected cases. Complications related to such management were limited. Further studies on aECLS are needed to evaluate safety and efficacy of early physiotherapy and define patient selection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Current information on the latest rehabilitative practices is limited, with previous reviews only covering data up to October 2021, and some considering only patients on awake ECMO or with COVID-19. This review aims to present a concise overview of the latest findings on rehabilitation and highlight emerging trends for patients undergoing ECMO support. METHODS This integrative review was conducted by searching the National Library of Medicine - PubMed database. Two different search strings "extracorporeal membrane oxygenation" AND "rehabilitation" and "extracorporeal membrane oxygenation" AND "physiotherapy" were used to search the published literature. Articles that did not describe rehabilitation techniques, editorials, conference proceedings, letters to editor, reviews and research protocols were excluded. Studies conducted on pediatric populations were also excluded. The search process was completed in December 2023. RESULTS Thirteen articles were included in the final analysis. Eight hundred and thirty-nine patients aged between 27 and 63 years were included; 428 were men (51%). In 31% of the included studies, patients had COVID-19; nevertheless, rehabilitative activities did not differ from non-COVID-19 patients. In most studies, rehabilitation commenced within the first 48-96 h and consisted of progressive exercise and out-of-bed activities such as sitting, standing and walking. CONCLUSION Current practice focuses on rehabilitative protocols that incorporate exercise routines with progressive intensity, greater emphasis on out-of-bed activities, and a multidisciplinary approach to patient mobilization.

Abstract
Venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation is increasingly used as a bridging strategy in decompensating patients awaiting lung transplantation. Various approaches for continuing support intraoperatively have been previously described. A two-circuit strategy that uses the in situ venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation circuit supplemented with peripheral cardiopulmonary bypass allows for diversion of native cardiac output away from the transplanted lung as well as seamless continuation of venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation postoperatively.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The ongoing coronavirus-19 disease (COVID-19) has taught us that early mobilization is essential for functional recovery during and after prolonged intensive care unit (ICU) stay. This especially applies for patients receiving a challenging combination of prolonged invasive treatments such as mechanical ventilation (MV) and extra-corporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). This case report describes the recovery of skeletal muscle strength and physical function in a patient (post) COVID-19 during ICU stay. CASE DESCRIPTION A 54 year old female patient was diagnosed with COVID-19 pneumonia, and ultimately needed ICU treatment with MV and ECMO for 69 days during which she received physiotherapy treatment. OUTCOMES The patient recovered from intensive care acquired muscle weakness (ICUAW) at day 53, resulting in the ability to walk at day 62. She was discharged from the ICU after 69 days with the ability to walk 20 meters with support of one person and a mobility aid. No evident adverse events were noted during or after physiotherapy sessions. DISCUSSION Early mobilization is feasible and safe in a patient (post) COVID-19 with prolonged ECMO treatment and facilitates functional recovery during ICU stay. This single case observation should be handled with caution and needs further validation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) continues to play an essential role in organ support in cardiogenic shock or acute respiratory distress syndrome and bridging to transplantation. The main purpose of the present survey was to define which clinical and organizational practices are adopted for the administration of physiotherapy in adult patients undergoing ECMO support worldwide. METHODS This international survey was conceived in November 2021. The survey launch was announced at the 10th EuroELSO (European ELSO chapter) Congress, London, May 2022. RESULTS The survey returned 32 questionnaires from 29 centers across 14 countries. 17 centers (53.1%) had more than 30 intensive care unit beds available and most (46.8%) were able to care for five to 10 patients on extracorporeal life support simultaneously. The predominant physiotherapist-to-patient ratio was 1:>5 (37.5%); physiotherapy was available 5/7 days and 7/7 days by 31.2% and 25% respectively. Respiratory physiotherapy was not defined by a specific protocol in most centers (46.8%) while 31.2% declared that the treatment commences less than 12 h after sedation is stopped/reduced. Mostly, early physiotherapy in non-cooperative ventilated patients was provided within the first 48 h (68.6%) and consisted of as passive range of motion, in-bed positioning, and splinting. Postural passages and sitting were provided to patients and walking was included in those advanced motor activities which are part of the treatment. CONCLUSION Physiotherapy in patients on ECLS is feasible, however substantial variability exists between centers with a trend of delivering not protocolized and understaffed rehabilitation practices.

Abstract
Purpose To describe the functional trajectory and physical rehabilitation of an individual who underwent lung transplantation for COVID-19 acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Client Description A previously healthy 60-year-old man admitted to critical care pre-transplantation and followed six months post-transplant. Intervention Physical rehabilitation in the critical care, acute ward and in-patient rehabilitation settings. Measures and Outcome Despite a successful surgery, a long and complex acute care admission contributed to a slow and variable functional recovery. Significant functional limitations and physical frailty were present in the early post-transplant period. Implications Little is known of the effects of COVID-19 superimposed upon lung transplantation on muscle function, exercise capacity, and physical activity. Future research should include case series to further understand the functional deficits and trajectory of recovery in this emerging clinical population. Standard core outcome measures should be identified for this population to enable synthesis of findings and inform short- and long-term rehabilitation strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mobilization is important in longer courses in intensive care unit (ICU), typical for patients requiring venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-V ECMO). For patients supported with ECMO, especially out-of-bed mobilizations improve outcome. We hypothesized that utilization of a dual lumen cannula (DLC) for V-V ECMO would facilitate out-of-bed mobilization compared to single lumen cannulas (SLC). METHODS Retrospective single center registry study including all V-V ECMO patients cannulated between 10/2010 and 05/2021 for respiratory failure. RESULTS The registry included 355 V-V ECMO patients (median age 55.6 years, 31.8% female, 27.3% with preexisting pulmonary disease), 289/355 (81.4%) primary cannulated with DLC, and 66/355 (18.6%) using SLC. Both groups had similar pre-ECMO characteristics. The runtime of the first ECMO cannula was significantly longer in DLC compared to SLC (169 vs. 115 h, p = 0.015). The frequency of prone positioning during V-V ECMO was similar in both groups (38.4 vs. 34.8%, p = 0.673). There was no difference in in-bed mobilization (41.2 vs. 36.4%, for DLC and SLC, respectively, p = 0.491). Patients with DLC were more often mobilized out-of-bed (25.6 vs. 12.1%, OR 2.495 [95% CI 1.150 to 5.268], for DLC and SLC, respectively, p = 0.023). Hospital survival was similar in both groups (46.4 vs. 39.4%, for DLC and SLC, respectively, p = 0.339). CONCLUSION Patients cannulated with a dual lumen cannula for V-V ECMO support were significantly more often mobilized out-of-bed. Since mobilization is important in prolonged ICU courses typical for ECMO patients, this might be an important benefit. Other benefits of DLC were the longer runtime of the initial cannula set and fewer suction events.

Early initiation of physical and occupational therapy while on extracorporeal life support improves patients' functional activity. Artif Organs 2023; 47:870-881. [PMID: 36310407 PMCID: PMC10148928 DOI: 10.1111/aor.14446] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2022] [Revised: 10/24/2022] [Accepted: 10/26/2022] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Managing acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) patients on venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-V ECMO), without sedation/neuromuscular blockade to allow physical and occupational therapy (PT/OT) participation, is untraditional. Here, we investigate the impact of early PT/OT initiation on discharge functional activity for ARDS patients managed on V-V ECMO. METHODS This is a retrospective review of 67 ARDS patients managed with V-V ECMO at a single academic center from February 2018 to June 2021. Data collected included patient characteristics, days of V-V ECMO support, day of PT/OT initiation, and ambulation distance and Activity Measure for Post-Acute Care (AMPAC) Six-Clicks score on day of discharge. RESULTS Patients with >7 days of V-V ECMO support had decreased ambulation and AMPAC scores compared to those with <7 days (70.5 vs. 162.1, p < 0.01 and 12.3 vs. 16.4, p = 0.01, respectively). PT/OT initiation within 7 days after starting V-V ECMO significantly improved ambulation and AMPAC scores (163.5 vs. 59.5, p < 0.001, and 16.6 vs. 11.8, p < 0.01, respectively). Additionally, in patients with >7 days of V-V ECMO support, those who began PT/OT within 8 days of V-V ECMO cannulation had significantly improved ambulation and AMPAC scores (151.8 vs. 44.2, p < 0.01, and 16.5 vs. 11.0, p < 0.01, respectively). CONCLUSION Early PT/OT initiation in severe ARDS patients managed on V-V ECMO is associated with improved patient functional activity on day of discharge. Our study further supports the use of V-V ECMO in treatment of severe ARDS without sedation/neuromuscular blockade and specifically demonstrates PT/OT should be started early following V-V ECMO cannulation.

Abstract
In Japan, successful cases of a bridge to lung transplantation (BTT) by extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) are rare. We present the case of a man in his thirties, diagnosed with interstitial pneumonia 6 years prior and registered for lung transplant 1 year prior due to disease progression despite treatment. Due to the patient's worsening respiratory failure, he was transferred to our hospital for BTT by ECMO. Since long-term management was expected and pulmonary hypertension was present, veno-arterial (V-A) ECMO was conducted using the right atrial blood outflow via the right internal jugular vein and right axillary artery inflow via a vascular graft. After tracheostomy, he was managed as "Awake ECMO". In addition, interprofessional collaboration such as physiotherapist rehabilitation, nurses, and liaison teams prevented muscle weakness and supported the mental aspect. We were able to minimize complications such as severe infections and bleeding. A compatible brain-dead donor was found on day 108 after introducing ECMO, and the patient was transferred to a transplant facility on day 109. The peripheral upper V-A ECMO is one of the configurations suitable for long-term BTT management.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess survival outcomes with the intervention of an interprofessional mobilization program for patients with COVID-19 who were receiving venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO). DESIGN Preintervention and postintervention retrospective cohort study. METHODS Survival outcomes of nonmobilized, adult patients (n = 16) with COVID-19 who were receiving VV-ECMO (May 2020 through December 2020) were compared with those of 26 patients who received a mobility care plan (January 2021 through November 2021). In the preintervention group, full sedation and paralysis were used. In the postintervention group, an early mobilization strategy involving interprofessional collaboration was introduced. RESULTS The postintervention group had improved survival (73.1% vs 43.8%; P < .04); fewer days of receiving paralytics, fentanyl, and midazolam (P < .01 for all); but more days of dexmedetomidine, morphine, and ketamine administration (P < .01 for all). Concomitantly, more patients in the postintervention cohort received oral or transdermal analgesics, oral anxiolytics, and oral antipsychotics (P < .01 for all), and also required more VV-ECMO cannula adjustments (P = .03). CONCLUSION Early mobilization of patients with COVID-19 who were receiving VV-ECMO improved survival rates but led to more cannula adjustments.

Abstract
Lung allocation in the US changed nearly 15 years ago from time accrued on the waiting list to disease severity and likelihood of posttransplant survival, represented by the lung allocation score (LAS). Notably, the risk of death within a year plays a stronger role on the score calculation than posttransplant survival. While this change was associated with the intended decrease in waitlist mortality (most recently reported at 14.6%), it was predictable that transplant teams would have to care for increasingly older and complex candidates and recipients. This urgency-based allocation also led centers to routinely consider transplanting patients with higher acuity, often hospitalized and, not infrequently, in the intensive care unit (ICU). According to the Scientific Registry for Transplant Recipients, from 2009 to 2019, the proportion of lung recipients hospitalized and those admitted to the ICU at the time of transplant increased from 18.9% to 26.8% and from 9.2% to 16.5%, respectively..

Abstract
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is one of the common invasive treatments for the care of critically ill patients with heart failure, respiratory failure, or both. There are two modes of ECMO, namely, veno-venous (VV) and veno-arterial (VA), which have different indications, survival rates, and incidences of complications. This study’s aim was to examine whether depression status differed between patients who had received VV-ECMO or VA-ECMO and had been discharged from the hospital. This was a descriptive, cross-sectional, and correlational study of patients who had been discharged from the hospital at least one month after receiving ECMO at a medical center in northern Taiwan from June 2006 to June 2020 (N = 142). Participants were recruited via convenience and quota sampling. Data were collected in the cardiovascular outpatient department between October 2015–October 2016 (n = 52) and September 2019–August 2020 (n = 90). Participants completed the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale–Depression (HADS-D) as a measure of depression status. Post-discharge depression scores for patients who received VV-ECMO (n = 67) was significantly higher (p = 0.018) compared with participants who received VA-ECMO (n = 75). In addition, the mode of ECMO was a predictor of post-discharge depression (p = 0.008) for participants who received VV-ECMO. This study concluded that patients who received VV-ECMO may require greater mental health support. Healthcare professionals should establish a psychological clinical care pathway evaluated by multiple healthcare professionals.

Mobility Levels With Physical Rehabilitation Delivered During and After Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation: A Marker of Illness Severity or an Indication of Recovery? Phys Ther 2022; 102:6481187. [PMID: 34972871 DOI: 10.1093/ptj/pzab301] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/03/2021] [Revised: 10/29/2021] [Accepted: 11/28/2021] [Indexed: 02/09/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aims of this study were to determine whether physical rehabilitation intervention for individuals who required extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is associated with clinical outcomes and to assess whether the patient mobility response over initial rehabilitation sessions early in the intensive care unit (ICU) course predicts or is associated with survival, lengths of stay, discharge disposition, and 30-day readmissions. METHODS This study was a 10-year retrospective practice analysis of adults who were critically ill and required ECMO for >72 hours in the cardiothoracic ICU at an academic medical center. Physical rehabilitation implemented during or following the initiation of ECMO was quantified on the basis of timing, frequency, and change in mobility level in response to the intervention over the first 4 consecutive sessions. The primary dependent outcome was in-hospital mortality. Secondary outcomes included 30-day readmission and discharge disposition ranked on an ordinal scale. RESULTS Three hundred fifteen individuals (mean age = 50 years [SD = 15 years]; 63% men; mean Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score = 11.6 [SD = 3.3]) met the inclusion criteria. Two hundred eighteen individuals (69%) received at least 1 physical rehabilitation session while requiring ECMO, 70 (22%) received rehabilitation after ECMO was discontinued, and 27 (9%) never received rehabilitation. Individuals discharged alive achieved higher mobility levels and had a steeper, more positive rate of change in mobility over the first 4 sessions than individuals who died in the hospital (2.8 vs 0.38; degrees of freedom = 199, t = 8.24). Those who received rehabilitation and achieved the milestones of sitting on the edge of the bed and walking for >45 m were more likely to survive (47% vs 13%; χ2 = 156) than those who did not (26% vs 3.5%; χ2 = 80). CONCLUSION A positive rate of change in mobility and the ability to achieve mobility milestones with rehabilitation were associated with improved clinical outcomes. IMPACT An individual's mobility response to physical rehabilitation early in the ICU course is an important indicator of illness and should be used with clinical presentation to guide clinical decision-making and predict outcomes.

Abstract
Although the rate of lung transplantation (LTx), the last treatment option for end-stage lung disease, is increasing, some patients waiting for LTx need a bridging strategy for LTx due to the limited number of available donor lungs. For a long time, mechanical ventilation has been employed as a bridge to LTx because the outcome of using extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) as a bridging strategy has been poor. However, the outcome after mechanical ventilation as a bridge to LTx was poor compared with that in patients without bridges. With advances in technology and the accumulation of experience, the outcome of ECMO as a bridge to LTx has improved, and the rate of ECMO use as a bridging strategy has increased over time. However, whether the use of ECMO as a bridge to LTx can achieve survival rates similar to those of non-bridged LTx patients remains controversial. In 2010, one center introduced awake ECMO strategy for LTx bridging, and its use as a bridge to LTx has been showing favorable outcomes to date. Awake ECMO has several advantages, such as maintenance of physical activity, spontaneous breathing, avoidance of endotracheal intubation, and reduced use of sedatives and analgesics, but it may cause serious problems. Nonetheless, several studies have shown that awake ECMO performed by a multidisciplinary team is safe. In cases where ECMO or mechanical ventilation is required due to unavoidable exacerbation in patients awaiting LTx, the application of awake ECMO performed by an appropriately trained ECMO multi-disciplinary team can be useful.

Abstract
The aim of this qualitative systematic review is to summarize and analyze the different modalities of exercise training and its potential effects in patients on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support. ECMO is an outbreaking, life-saving technology of the last decades which is being used as a gold standard treatment in patients with severe cardiac, respiratory or combined cardiorespiratory failure. Critically ill patients on ECMO very often present intensive care unit-acquired weakness (ICU-AW); thus, leading to decreased exercise capacity and increased mortality rates. Early mobilization and physical therapy have been proven to be safe and feasible in critically ill patients on ECMO, either as a bridge to lung/heart transplantation or as a bridge to recovery. Rehabilitation has beneficial effects from the early stages in the ICU, resulting in the prevention of ICU-AW, and a decrease in episodes of delirium, the duration of mechanical ventilation, ICU and hospital length of stay, and mortality rates. It also improves functional ability, exercise capacity, and quality of life. Rehabilitation requires a very careful, multi-disciplinary approach from a highly specialized team from different specialties. Initial risk assessment and screening, with appropriate physical therapy planning and exercise monitoring in patients receiving ECMO therapy are crucial factors for achieving treatment goals. However, more randomized controlled trials are required in order to establish more appropriate individualized exercise training protocols.

Abstract
Background and purpose The coronavirus diseases 2019 (COVID‐19) pandemic posed severe difficulties in managing critically ill patients in hospital care settings. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support has been proven to be lifesaving support during the SARS‐CoV‐2 outbreak. The purpose of this review was to describe the rehabilitative treatments provided to patients undergoing ECMO support during the COVID‐19 pandemic. Methods We searched PubMed and Scopus for English‐language studies published from the databases’ inception until June 30, 2021. We excluded editorials, letters to the editor, and studies that did not describe rehabilitative procedures during ECMO support. We also excluded those articles not written in English. Results A total of 50 articles were identified. We ultimately included nine studies, seven of which were case reports. Only two studies had more than one patient; an observational design analyzing the clinical course of 19 patients and a case series of three patients. Extracorporeal support duration varied from 9 to 49 days, and the primary indication was acute respiratory distress syndrome COVID‐19‐related. Rehabilitative treatment mainly consisted of in‐bed mobilization, postural transfers (including sitting), and respiratory exercises. After hospital discharge, patients were referred to rehabilitation facilities. Physiotherapeutic interventions provided during ECMO support and after its discontinuation were feasible and safe. Conclusion The physiotherapeutic treatment of patients undergoing ECMO support includes several components and must be provided in a multidisciplinary context. The optimal approach depends on the patient’s status, including sedation, level of consciousness, ECMO configuration, types of cannulas, and cannulation site.

Rehabilitation of adult patients on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation: A scoping review. Aust Crit Care 2021; 35:575-582. [PMID: 34711492 DOI: 10.1016/j.aucc.2021.08.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/08/2021] [Revised: 08/27/2021] [Accepted: 08/29/2021] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to conduct a scoping review to comprehensively map the breadth of literature related to the rehabilitation of adult patients whilst on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and identify gaps and areas for future research. REVIEW METHOD USED This review was conducted using recommended frameworks for methods and reporting including the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews. DATE SOURCES We searched seven databases from inception to June 2021 and included all study designs and grey literature. REVIEW METHODS Eligibility screening was completed by two independent reviewers according to inclusion and exclusion criteria, with any disagreement resolved by consensus or with consultation with a third reviewer. Two independent reviewers extracted data related to intervention characteristics, patient outcomes, feasibility, safety, hospital outcomes, and mortality using a custom-designed piloted form. RESULTS Of 8507 records, 185 original studies met inclusion criteria, with the majority being small retrospective studies. Rehabilitation was more commonly reported in patients on veno-venous rather than veno-arterial ECMO. Ambulation was the most commonly reported intervention (51% of studies). Critical gaps were identified including incomplete reporting of the intervention along with heterogeneity in the type and timing of outcome measures. Less than 50% of patients met eligibility criteria to participate, but screening for eligibility was infrequently reported (9% of studies). Delivery of rehabilitation during ECMO may be facilitated by an expert multidisciplinary team, along with a strategy that targets low sedation levels and an upper body cannulation approach. CONCLUSIONS Rehabilitation during ECMO is an emerging area of research and mostly consisted of small retrospective single-centre studies. Future research requires more robust methodological designs that include comprehensive screening of potential candidates with reporting of eligibility, more detailed descriptions of the rehabilitation interventions, inclusion of a core outcome set with defined measurement instruments, and consistent timing of outcome measurement.

Abstract
Lung injury caused by chemical gas inhalation is a common clinically severe disease that very easily progresses to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Traditional respiratory support consists mainly of mechanical ventilation, but the prognosis of this condition is still poor. "Awake" extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) maintains oxygenation, improves ventilation, adequately allows the injured lungs to rest, and avoids complications associated with sedation, intubation, and mechanical ventilation. Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) can provide better fluid management and reduce pulmonary edema. Herein, we describe the case of a patient with severe chemical gas inhalation lung injury who failed to respond to traditional mechanical ventilation and was subsequently treated with awake ECMO combined with CRRT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation is increasingly used to provide cardiopulmonary support to patients awaiting lung transplant. Although studies have shown that these patients benefit from early mobilization, the care team often has concerns about related complications, particularly for patients requiring femoral cannulation. OBJECTIVE To assess the safety of mobilizing patients receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation before lung transplant using a standardized mobility protocol. METHODS A retrospective review was performed of the electronic health records of patients receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation before or immediately after lung transplant who were mobilized according to a standardized protocol from April through October 2018. The setting was an 18-bed cardiothoracic intensive care unit in a Magnet-designated teaching hospital. Patients were helped to ambulate by an interdisciplinary team, with careful assessment for any related complications. RESULTS During the study period, 37 patients received extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, and 9 were mobilized. Two hundred forty-two therapy sessions were conducted involving 47 700 feet of ambulation. Patients experienced the following complications: chugging (1 patient), decrease in flow rate (2 patients), bleeding at the cannula site (2 patients), neck hyperextension (1 patient), fear/anxiety (1 patient), and shortness of breath (2 patients). Bleeding and neck hyperextension led to discontinuation of therapy until the problems were resolved. No changes were made to the protocol. CONCLUSIONS Patients receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation before lung transplant, including those with femoral cannulation, can be mobilized safely with the use of an interprofessional ambulation protocol. Further evaluation is indicated, including research on clinical outcomes.

Abstract
The use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in the field of lung transplantation has rapidly expanded over the past 30 years. It has become an important tool in an increasing number of specialized centers as a bridge to transplantation and in the intra-operative and/or post-operative setting. ECMO is an extremely versatile tool in the field of lung transplantation as it can be used and adapted in different configurations with several potential cannulation sites according to the specific need of the recipient. For example, patients who need to be bridged to lung transplantation often have hypercapnic respiratory failure that may preferably benefit from veno-venous (VV) ECMO or peripheral veno-arterial (VA) ECMO in the case of hemodynamic instability. Moreover, in an intra-operative setting, VV ECMO can be maintained or switched to a VA ECMO. The routine use of intra-operative ECMO and its eventual prolongation in the post-operative period has been widely investigated in recent years by several important lung transplantation centers in order to assess the graft function and its potential protective role on primary graft dysfunction and on ischemia-reperfusion injury. This review will assess the current evidence on the role of ECMO in the different phases of lung transplantation, while analyzing different studies on pre, intra- and post-operative utilization of this extracorporeal support.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prolonged hospitalization and immobility of critical care patients elevate the risk of long-term physical and cognitive impairments. However, the therapeutic effects of early mobilization have been difficult to interpret due to variations in study populations, interventions, and outcome measures. We conducted a meta-analysis to assess the effects of early mobilization therapy on cardiac surgery patients in the intensive care unit (ICU). METHODS PubMed, Excerpta Medica database (EMBASE), Cumulative Index of Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro), and the Cochrane Library were comprehensively searched from their inception to September 2018. Randomized controlled trials were included if patients were adults (≥18 years) admitted to any ICU for cardiac surgery due to cardiovascular disease and who were treated with experimental physiotherapy initiated in the ICU (pre, post, or peri-operative). Data were extracted by 2 reviewers independently using a pre-constructed data extraction form. Length of ICU and hospital stay was evaluated as the primary outcomes. Physical function and adverse events were assessed as the secondary outcomes. Review Manager 5.3 (RevMan 5.3) was used for statistical analysis. For all dichotomous variables, relative risks or odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were presented. For all continuous variables, mean differences (MDs) or standard MDs with 95% CIs were calculated. RESULTS The 5 studies with a total of 652 patients were included in the data synthesis final meta-analysis. While a slight favorable effect was detected in 3 out of the 5 studies, the overall effects were not significant, even after adjusting for heterogeneity. CONCLUSIONS This population-specific evaluation of the efficacy of early mobilization to reduce hospitalization duration suggests that intervention may not universally justify the labor barriers and resource costs in patients undergoing non-emergency cardiac surgery.

Abstract
This document outlines best practice recommendations for acute care physiotherapy for patients with COVID-19, with an emphasis on critical care rehabilitation, including patients on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support. These recommendations were developed for practice in Qatar but are adaptable to any setting. This recommendation is the result of a combination of systematic evidence searches, subsequent critical evaluation of the retrieved evidence and a consensus process. The agreed recommendations were integrated into a physiotherapeutic clinical reasoning algorithm. It includes recommendations on physiotherapy referrals, screening, management categories and best practice recommendations. It is intended for use by physiotherapists and other relevant stakeholders, in acute care settings, for adult patients with suspected or confirmed COVID-19.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Right ventricular failure (RVF) on its own is a life-threatening condition. Often it manifests as a two-organ failure in the final phase of several lung diseases. Mechanical circulatory support is a proven treatment of RVF but remains challenging. Our objective is to develop a novel, simplified, and minimally invasive cannula approach to treat both RVF and respiratory failure. METHODS We conceptualized a dual lumen cannula approach to allow oxygenated right-to-left shunting at an atrial level to decompress right-sided circulation. A minimally invasive approach through percutaneous, transjugular insertion and transseptal placement should enable patients to be non-sedated and even ambulatory. In an iterative design, pre-prototyping, prototyping, and anatomic fitting process, such a cannula was generated and tested in both cadaveric and fluid dynamic studies. RESULTS After various modifications and improvements, a 27-Fr 255-mm-long double-lumen cannula with an inner line (oxygenated blood return to patient into the left atrium) of 18 Fr and an inflatable balloon (with a volume of approximately 1 mL) at the outflow tip was produced - one version with a straight head and another one with a curved head. In our anatomic studies, the "Aachen Cannula" allowed an easy transjugular introduction and advancement into the right atrium by Seldinger technique. Transseptal placement was achieved by puncture (Brockenbrough needle) in combination with dilatation and was then secured in place with the stabilizing balloon, even under slight tension. The cannula prototype enabled a flow of up to 3.5 L/min, at which common pressure drops were observed. CONCLUSION In conclusion, we successfully conceptualized, designed, and verified a minimally invasive one-cannula approach for the treatment of either isolated right heart failure and even combined RVF and respiratory failure through our transseptal Aachen Cannula. This concept may also be carried out in ambulatory conditions. Moreover, this approach completely avoids recirculation issues and ensures reliable oxygenated coronary as well as cerebral perfusion.

Abstract
Scientific and technological advances, coupled with the work of multidisciplinary teams in intensive care units, have increased the survival of critically ill patients. An essential life support resource used in intensive care is extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. Despite the increased number of studies involving critically ill patients, few studies to date have demonstrated the safety and benefits of physical therapy combined with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support. This review identified the clinical outcomes of physical therapy in adult patients on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support by searching the MEDLINE®, PEDro, Cochrane CENTRAL, LILACS, and EMBASE databases and by manually searching the references of the articles published until September 2017. The database search retrieved 1,213 studies. Of these studies, 20 were included in this review, with data on 317 subjects (58 in the control group). Twelve studies reported that there were no complications during physical therapy. Cannula fracture during ambulation (one case), thrombus in the return cannula (one case), and leg swelling (one case) were reported in two studies, and desaturation and mild vertigo were reported in two studies. In contrast, improvements in respiratory/pulmonary function, functional capacity, muscle strength (with reduced muscle mass loss), incidence of myopathy, length of hospitalization, and mortality in patients who underwent physical therapy were reported. The analysis of the available data indicates that physical therapy, including early progressive mobilization, standing, ambulation, and breathing techniques, together with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, is feasible, relatively safe, and potentially beneficial for critically ill adult patients.

Abstract
Postintensive care syndrome (PICS) is a heterogeneous syndrome marked by physical, cognitive, and mental health impairments experienced by critical care survivors. It is a syndrome that bears significant human and health care costs. Additional research is needed to identify risk factors and diagnostic, preventative, and treatment strategies for PICS. Trauma intensive care unit patients are particularly vulnerable to posttraumatic stress disorder, which shares some of the adverse long-term consequences of PICS and also requires additional research into effective preventative and management strategies.

Abstract
Veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV ECMO) is used for support in patients with severe respiratory failure. The method allows extracorporeal gas exchange and may replace the patient's lung function for weeks and even years. ECMO is not a contraindication for lung transplant. The most important factor for a good outcome is the physiological status of the patient when accepted for transplantation. Ambulatory ECMO makes it possible for the patient to exercise and walk, and provides the best outcome for high risk patients in severe respiratory failure. Ambulatory ECMO is safe in the hands of skilled personnel and prevents critical illness neuropathy and myopathy during prolonged treatments in the intensive care unit.

Abstract
RATIONALE There are limited data on physiotherapy during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). OBJECTIVES We sought to characterize physiotherapy delivered to patients with ARDS supported with ECMO, as well as to evaluate the association of this therapeutic modality with mortality. METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study of all adult patients with ARDS supported with ECMO at our institution between 2010 and 2015. The highest level of daily activity while on ECMO was coded using the ICU Mobility Scale. Through multivariable logistic regression, we evaluated the association between intensive care unit (ICU) physiotherapy and ICU mortality. In an exploratory univariate analysis, we also evaluated factors associated with a higher intensity of ICU rehabilitation while on ECMO. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Of 107 patients who underwent ECMO, 61 (57%) had ARDS requiring venovenous ECMO. The ICU physiotherapy team was consulted for 82% (n = 50) of patients. Thirty-nine percent (n = 18) of these patients achieved an activity level of 2 or higher (active exercises in bed), and 17% (n = 8) achieved an activity level 4 or higher (actively sitting over the side of the bed). In an exploratory analysis, consultation with the ICU physiotherapy team was associated with decreased ICU mortality (odds ratio, 0.19; 95% confidence interval, 0.04-0.98). In univariate analysis, severity-of-illness factors differentiated higher-intensity and lower-intensity physiotherapy. CONCLUSIONS Physiotherapy during ECMO is feasible and safe when performed by an experienced team and executed in stages. Although our study suggests an association with improved ICU mortality, future research is needed to identify potential barriers, optimal timing, dosage, and safety profile.

Abstract
Lung transplantation is a viable alternative for end-stage lung diseases, which offers good quality of life and survival outcomes for recipients. The aims of pre-assessment for potential lung transplant recipients are to assess fitness for surgery, optimise co-morbidities, commence interventions or investigations, weigh risk-benefit ratio, plan appropriate analgesia and obtain informed consent. The assessment information is gathered from the medical record, patient interview, physical examination and pre-operative tests. A comprehensive workup includes cardiopulmonary evaluation, haematological, biochemical, microbiological and immunological investigations. Most of the evidence regarding lung transplantation is gleaned from retrospective data from single, multi-centre or multinational registries. The lack of good quality evidence means that the guidelines are based on expert consensus.

Abstract
Clinical specialist physiotherapists from the five severe respiratory failure centres in England where respiratory extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is practiced have established this consensus agreement for physiotherapy best practice. The severe respiratory failure centres are Wythenshawe Hospital, Manchester; Glenfield Hospital, Leicester; Papworth Hospital, Cambridge; Guy's and St Thomas' Hospital, London and The Royal Brompton Hospital, London. Although research into physiotherapy and ECMO is increasing, there is not a sufficient amount to write evidence-based guidelines; hence the development of a consensus document, using knowledge and experience of the specialist physiotherapists working with patients receiving ECMO. The document outlines safety aspects, practicalities and additional treatment considerations for physiotherapists conducting respiratory care and physical rehabilitation.

Abstract
Physical rehabilitation of lung transplant candidates and recipients plays an important in optimizing physical function prior to transplant and facilitating recovery of function post-transplant. As medical and surgical interventions in lung transplantation have evolved over time, there has been a demographic shift of individuals undergoing lung transplantation including older individuals, those with multiple co-morbidites, and candidates with respiratory failure requiring bridging to transplantation. These changes have an impact on the rehabilitation needs of lung transplant candidates and recipients. This review provides a practical approach to rehabilitation based on research and clinical practice at our transplant centre. It focuses on functional assessment and exercise prescription during an uncomplicated and complicated clinical course in the pre-transplant, early and late post-transplant periods. The target audience includes clinicians involved in pre- and post-transplant patient care and rehabilitation researchers.
