Abstract
INTRODUCTION Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is primarily used for the supportive treatment of patients suffering from severe cardiopulmonary failure. With the continued development of ECMO technology, the relevant scenarios also extend pre-hospital and inter-hospital. In order to meet the needs of emergency treatment in communities, disaster sites and battlefields, inter-hospital transfer and evacuation; miniaturized and portable ECMO has become a current research hotspot. AREA COVERED The paper first introduces the principle, composition and common modes of ECMO and summarizes the research status of portable ECMO, Novalung and wearable ECMO, analyzes the characteristics and shortcomings of existing equipment. finally, we discussed the focus and development trend of portable ECMO technology. EXPERT OPINION Currently, portable ECMO has many applications in interhospital transport and there are various studies on portable and wearable ECMO devices, but the development of portable ECMO still faces many challenges. In the future, research related to integrated components, rich sensor arrays, Intelligent ECMO system and lightweight technology can make future portable ECMO more suitable for pre-hospital emergency and interhospital transport.

J Artif Organs 2018; 22:6-13. [PMID: 30187234 DOI: 10.1007/s10047-018-1067-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2018] [Accepted: 08/29/2018] [Indexed: 01/21/2023]
Abstract
In recent years, there have been substantial advancements in the development of different technologies for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for in-hospital and out of hospital applications. However the effectiveness of these devices is not clearly known. The objective of this study was to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of Cardiohelp compared to other portable ECMO devices. In this systematic review, we searched Medline (via Ovid), Embase, Pubmed, Cochrane Library, SCOPUS, CRD and NICE. Articles were assessed by two independent reviewers for eligibility and quality of the evidence. Studies which compared Cardiohelp to other ECMO devices were included. Seven out of 1316 publication were included in this review, three of them were clinical trials and four were observational studies. The majority of the studies had limited quality. According to the measures of safety, Cardiohelp had safer technological features, but on the other hand, was more complex to use. Considering the effectiveness, Cardiohelp was not statistically different from other technologies. Cardiohelp showed slightly better performance than Centrimag in terms of cost per patient and cost-effectiveness. However, when clinical criteria were used to select the patients with good prognosis to administer the ECMO, incremental cost utility ratios (ICURs) for both Cardiohelp and Centrimag were below the level of willingness-to-pay threshold. According to the measures of safety and effectiveness, ECMO with Cardiohelp was not considerably different from other evaluated technologies. Moreover, ECMO with Cardiohelp or Centrimag can be considered cost-effective, provided that the patients are selected carefully in terms of neurological outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) therapy has supported critically ill pediatric patients in the intensive care unit setting with cardiac and respiratory failure. This therapy is beginning to transition to the emergency department setting. OBJECTIVE OF REVIEW This article describes the fundamentals of ECMO and familiarizes the emergency medicine physician with its use in critically ill pediatric patients. DISCUSSION ECMO can be utilized as either venoarterial (VA) or venovenous (VV), to support oxygenation and perfusion in respiratory failure, sepsis, cardiac arrest, and environmental hypothermia.

Veno-venous ECMO: a synopsis of nine key potential challenges, considerations, and controversies. BMC Anesthesiol 2014; 14:65. [PMID: 25110462 PMCID: PMC4126084 DOI: 10.1186/1471-2253-14-65] [Citation(s) in RCA: 34] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2013] [Accepted: 07/30/2014] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Following the 2009 H1N1 Influenza pandemic, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) emerged as a viable alternative in selected, severe cases of ARDS. Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is a major public health problem. Average medical costs for ARDS survivors on an annual basis are multiple times those dedicated to a healthy individual. Advances in medical and ventilatory management of severe lung injury and ARDS have improved outcomes in some patients, but these advances fail to consistently “rescue” a significant proportion of those affected. Discussion Here we present a synopsis of the challenges, considerations, and potential controversies regarding veno-venous ECMO that will be of benefit to anesthesiologists, surgeons, and intensivists, especially those newly confronted with care of the ECMO patient. We outline a number of points related to ECMO, particularly regarding cannulation, pump/oxygenator design, anticoagulation, and intravascular fluid management of patients. We then address these challenges/considerations/controversies in the context of their potential future implications on clinical approaches to ECMO patients, focusing on the development and advancement of standardized ECMO clinical practices. Summary Since the 2009 H1N1 pandemic ECMO has gained a wider acceptance. There are challenges that still must be overcome. Further investigations of the benefits and effects of ECMO need to be undertaken in order to facilitate the implementation of this technology on a larger scale.

Abstract
The presented work relates to the procedure followed for the automation of a portable extracorporeal circulatory support system. Such a device may help increase the chances of survival after suffering from cardiogenic shock outside the hospital, additionally a controller can provide of optimal organ perfusion, while reducing the workload of the operator. Animal experiments were carried out for the acquisition of haemodynamic behaviour of the body under extracorporeal circulation. A mathematical model was constructed based on the experimental data, including a cardiovascular model, gas exchange and the administration of medication. As the base of the controller fuzzy logic was used allowing the easy integration of knowledge from trained perfusionists, an adaptive mechanism was included to adapt to the patient's individual response. Initial simulations show the effectiveness of the controller and the improvements of perfusion after adaptation.

Abstract
The automation of a portable extracorporeal support system may greatly help people who suffer from cardiogenic shock by providing them with an optimal oxygen perfusion and avoid mult-organ failure while being transported to a hospital. This however requires the creation of tools that help in the design of the ideal controller. In this paper a simulation environment is described were a cardiovascular model from the ISR Physiome database was used together with a model of a portable extracorporeal support system. Additionally a model of an oxygenator/blender model is introduced to allow the simulation of oxygen perfusion. Fuzzy controlling was used for automation since it allows a straightforward implementation of expert knowledge. Through the simulation environment different scenarios may be created where intensive testing is possible and constant repetition for control optimization. Initial simulation results are given of the fuzzy controller adjusting the extracorporeal flow rate and oxygen administration for a case of low cardiac output.
