Injection Site Matters: A Comparative Analysis of Transpulmonary Thermodilution via Simultaneous Femoral and Jugular Indicator Injections under Veno-Venous Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Therapy. J Clin Med 2024; 13:2334. [PMID: 38673607 PMCID: PMC11050890 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13082334] [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: 02/20/2024] [Revised: 04/10/2024] [Accepted: 04/15/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Background: The use of veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (vv-ECMO) in acute lung failure has witnessed a notable increase. The PiCCO system is frequently used for advanced hemodynamic monitoring in this cohort. Our study aimed to investigate whether the choice of indicator injection site (jugular vs. femoral) in patients undergoing vv-ECMO therapy affects transpulmonary thermodilution (TPTD) measurements using the PiCCO® device (Pulsion Medical Systems SE, Munich, Germany). Methods: In a retrospective single-center analysis, we compared thermodilution-derived hemodynamic parameters after simultaneous jugular and femoral injections in 28 measurements obtained in two patients with respiratory failure who were undergoing vv-ECMO therapy. Results: Elevated values of the extravascular lung water index (EVLWI), intrathoracic blood volume index (ITBVI) and global end-diastolic volume index (GEDVI) were observed following femoral indicator injection compared to jugular indicator injection (EVLWI: 29.3 ± 10.9 mL/kg vs. 18.3 ± 6.71 mL/kg, p = 0.0003; ITBVI: 2163 ± 631 mL/m2 vs. 806 ± 125 mL/m2, p < 0.0001; GEDVI: 1731 ± 505 mL/m2 vs. 687 ± 141 mL/m2, p < 0.0001). The discrepancy between femoral and jugular measurements exhibited a linear correlation with extracorporeal blood flow (ECBF). Conclusions: In a PiCCO®-derived hemodynamic assessment of patients on vv-ECMO, the femoral indicator injection, as opposed to the jugular injection, resulted in an overestimation of all index parameters. This discrepancy can be attributed to mean transit time (MTt) and downslope time-dependent (DSt) variations in GEDVI and cardiac function index and is correlated with ECBF.

Abstract
In 2022, we celebrated the 15th anniversary of the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT) Academy, a 2-day conference attended yearly by an international audience of over 100 nephrology, critical care, and multidisciplinary trainees and practitioners. This year, we introduce the proceedings of the UAB CRRT Academy, a yearly review of select emerging topics in the field of critical care nephrology that feature prominently in the conference. First, we review the rapidly evolving field of non-invasive hemodynamic monitoring and its potential to guide fluid removal by renal replacement therapy (RRT). We begin by summarizing the accumulating data associating fluid overload with harm in critical illness and the potential for harm from end-organ hypoperfusion caused by excessive fluid removal with RRT, underscoring the importance of accurate, dynamic assessment of volume status. We describe four applications of point-of-care ultrasound used to identify patients in need of urgent fluid removal or likely to tolerate fluid removal: lung ultrasound, inferior vena cava ultrasound, venous excess ultrasonography, and Doppler of the left ventricular outflow track to estimate stroke volume. We briefly introduce other minimally invasive hemodynamic monitoring technologies before concluding that additional prospective data are urgently needed to adapt these technologies to the specific task of fluid removal by RRT and to learn how best to integrate them into practical fluid-management strategies. Second, we focus on the growth of novel extracorporeal blood purification devices, starting with brief reviews of the inflammatory underpinnings of multiorgan dysfunction and the specific applications of pathogen, endotoxin, and/or cytokine removal and immunomodulation. Finally, we review a series of specific adsorptive technologies, several of which have seen substantial clinical use during the COVID-19 pandemic, describing their mechanisms of target removal, the limited existing data supporting their efficacy, ongoing and future studies, and the need for additional prospective trials.

Abstract
Background Fluid overload is common in patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) and ultrafiltration (UF) is frequently required. There is lack of guidance on optimal UF practice. We aimed to explore patterns of UF practice, barriers to achieving UF targets, and concerns related to UF practice among practitioners working in Europe. Methods This was a sub-study of an international open survey with focus on adult intensivists and nephrologists, advanced practice providers, and ICU and dialysis nurses working in Europe. Results Four hundred eighty-five practitioners (75% intensivists) from 31 countries completed the survey. The most common criteria for UF initiation was persistent oliguria/anuria (45.6%), followed by pulmonary edema (16.7%). Continuous renal replacement therapy was the preferred initial modality (90.0%). The median initial and maximal rate of net ultrafiltration (UFNET) prescription in hemodynamically stable patients were 149 mL/hr. (IQR 100–200) and 300 mL/hr. (IQR 201–352), respectively, compared to a median UFNET rate of 98 mL/hr. (IQR 51–108) in hemodynamically unstable patients and varied significantly between countries. Two-thirds of nurses and 15.5% of physicians reported assessing fluid balance hourly. When hemodynamic instability occurred, 70.1% of practitioners reported decreasing the rate of fluid removal, followed by starting or increasing the dose of a vasopressor (51.3%). Most respondents (90.7%) believed in early fluid removal and expressed willingness to participate in a study comparing protocol-based fluid removal versus usual care. Conclusions There was a significant variation in UF practice and perception among practitioners in Europe. Future research should focus on identifying the best strategies of prescribing and managing ultrafiltration in critically ill patients.

Abstract
A substantial part of COVID-19-patients suffers from multi-organ failure (MOF). We report on an 80-year old patient with pulmonary, renal, circulatory, and hepatic failure. We decided against the use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) due to old age and a SOFA-score of 13. However, the patient was continuously treated with the extracorporeal multi-organ- “ADVanced Organ Support” (ADVOS) device (ADVITOS GmbH, Munich, Germany). During eight 24h-treatment-sessions blood flow (100–300 mL/min), dialysate flow (160–320 mL/min) and dialysate pH (7.6–9.0) were adapted to optimize arterial PaCO2 and pH. Effective CO2 removal and correction of acidosis could be demonstrated by mean arterial- versus post-dialyzer values of pCO2 (68.7 ± 13.8 vs. 26.9 ± 11.6 mmHg; p < 0.001). The CO2-elimination rate was 48 ± 23mL/min. The initial vasopressor requirement could be reduced in parallel to pH-normalization. Interruptions of ADVOS-treatment repeatedly resulted in reversible deteriorations of paCO2 and pH. After 95 h of continuous extracorporeal decarboxylating therapy the patient had markedly improved circulatory parameters compared to baseline. In the context of secondary pulmonary infection and progressive liver failure, the patient had a sudden cardiac arrest. In accordance with the presumed patient will, we decided against mechanical resuscitation. Irrespective of the outcome we conclude that extracorporeal CO2 removal and multiorgan-support were feasible in this COVID-19-patient. Combined and less invasive approaches such as ADVOS might be considered in old-age-COVID-19 patients with MOF.

Abstract
Close hemodynamic monitoring is crucial for the patients to guide cardiovascular therapy for the optimal management. Transpulmonary thermodilution offers a less invasive hemodynamic monitoring with Pulse Index Continuous Cardiac Output system analysis. Intracardiac shunts have been associated with well-defined alterations in transpulmonary thermodilution-related hemodynamic parameters leading to inaccurate measurements and therefore are among the contraindications for transpulmonary thermodilution. However, data on the effects of arteriovenous fistulas as well as extracorporeal circuits on the thermodilution curves remain limited and inconclusive. Herein, we report generation of modified thermodilution curve forms leading to incorrect calculation of thermodilution-derived hemodynamic parameters by Pulse Index Continuous Cardiac Output system in a female patient in the presence of Continuous Veno-Venous Hemodiafiltration and a high flow arteriovenous fistula. Our findings revealed generation of modified thermodilution curves and unacceptably high extravascular lung water readings by Pulse Index Continuous Cardiac Output system. This seems consistent with early recirculation of cold indicator in case of a peripheral shunt emphasizing the potential impact of high flow arteriovenous fistula on reliability of transpulmonary thermodilution measurements in critically ill patients, limiting the use of Pulse Index Continuous Cardiac Output system in these conditions.

Abstract
Background Treatment of multiple organ failure frequently requires enhanced hemodynamic monitoring. When renal replacement is indicated, it remains unclear whether transpulmonary thermodilution (TPTD) measurements are influenced by renal replacement therapy (RRT) and whether RRT should be paused for TPTD measurements. Our aim was therefore to investigate the effect of pausing RRT on TPTD results in two dialysis catheter locations. Materials and methods In total, 62 TPTD measurements in 24 patients (APACHE: 32 ± 7 [mean ± standard deviation (SD)]) were performed using the PiCCO™ system (Pulsion, Germany). Patients were treated with sustained low efficiency dialysis (SLED; Genius™ system, Fresenius, Germany) as RRT. Measurements were taken during ongoing hemodialysis (HD, HDO), during paused HD (HDP) and immediately after termination of HD and blood restitution (HDT). Dialysis catheters were placed either in the superior vena cava (SVC, 19 times) or in the inferior vena cava (IVC, 5 times). Statistical analysis was performed to assess the effects of the measurement setting, SLED (blood flow rate) and the catheter location, on cardiac index (CI), global end-diastolic volume index (GEDVI) and extravascular lung water index (EVLWI) as measured by TPTD. Multilevel models were used for the analysis due to the triplicate measurements and due to 12 out of 19 SVC and 2 out of 5 IVC patients having more than one TPTD measured. Results CI and GEDVI were significantly higher at time point HDP compared to both HDO and HDT. In contrast, values for EVLWI were lower at HDP when compared to HDO and HDT. These findings were independent of the site of dialysis catheter insertion and blood flow rate. Conclusions PiCCO™ measurements assessed at paused SLED significantly deviate from ongoing and terminated SLED. Therefore, the dialysis system should not be paused for measurements. TPTD measurements in patients with PiCCO monitoring seem sufficiently reliable during ongoing SLED as well as after its termination. An effect of dialysis catheter location (SVC vs IVC) and blood flow rate on PiCCO™ measurements could not be shown.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Stroke volume variation (SVV) has high sensitivity and specificity in predicting fluid responsiveness. However, sinus rhythm (SR) and controlled mechanical ventilation (CV) are mandatory for their application. Several studies suggest a limited applicability of SVV in intensive care unit (ICU) patients. We hypothesized that the applicability of SVV might be different over time and within certain subgroups of ICU patients. Therefore, we analysed the prevalence of SR and CV in ICU patients during the first 24 h of PiCCO-monitoring (primary endpoint) and during the total ICU stay. We also investigated the applicability of SVV in the subgroups of patients with sepsis, cirrhosis, and acute pancreatitis. METHODS The prevalence of SR and CV was documented immediately before 1241 thermodilution measurements in 88 patients. RESULTS In all measurements, SVV was applicable in about 24%. However, the applicability of SVV was time-dependent: the prevalence of both SR and CV was higher during the first 24 h compared to measurements thereafter (36.1% vs. 21.9%; P<0.001). Within different subgroups, the applicability during the first 24 h of monitoring ranged between 0% in acute pancreatitis, 25.5% in liver failure, and 48.9% in patients without pancreatitis, liver failure, pneumonia or sepsis. CONCLUSIONS The applicability of SVV in a predominantly medical ICU is only about 25%-35%. The prevalence of both mandatory criteria decreases over time during the ICU stay. Furthermore, the applicability is particularly low in patients with acute pancreatitis and liver failure.

Comparison of cardiac function index derived from femoral and jugular indicator injection for transpulmonary thermodilution with the PiCCO-device: A prospective observational study. PLoS One 2018; 13:e0200740. [PMID: 30063736 PMCID: PMC6067690 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0200740] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/09/2017] [Accepted: 07/02/2018] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction Cardiac function index (CFI) is a trans-pulmonary thermodilution (TPTD)-derived estimate of systolic function. CFI is defined as the ratio of cardiac output divided by global end-diastolic volume GEDV (CFI = CO/GEDV). Several studies demonstrated that the use of femoral venous access results in a marked overestimation of GEDV, while CFI is underestimated. One study suggested a correction formula for femoral venous access that markedly reduced the bias for GEDVI. Therefore, the last PiCCO-algorithm requires information about the CVC-position which suggests a correction of GEDV for femoral access. However, a recent study demonstrated inconsistencies of the last PiCCO algorithm using incorrected GEDV to calculate CFI despite obvious correction of GEDV. Nevertheless, this study was based on mathematical analyses of data displayed in a total of 15 patients equipped with only a femoral, but not with a jugular CVC. Therefore, this study compared CFI derived from the femoral indicator injection TPTD to data derived from jugular indicator injection in 28 patients with both a jugular and a femoral CVC. Methods 28 ICU-patients with PiCCO-monitoring were included. Each dataset consisted of three triplicate TPTDs using the jugular venous gold standard access and the femoral access with and without information about the femoral indicator injection to evaluate, if correction for femoral GEDV also pertains to CFI. (CFI_jug: jugular indicator injection; CFI_fem: femoral indicator injection; CFI_fem_cor: femoral indicator injection with correct information about CVC-position; CFI_fem_uncor: femoral indicator injection with uncorrect information about CVC-position; CFI_fem_uncor_form = CFI_fem_uncor * (GEDVI_fem_uncor/GEDVI_fem_cor)). Results CFI_fem_uncor was significantly lower than CFI_jug (4.28±1.70 vs. 5.21±1.91 min-1; p<0.001). Similarly, CFI_fem_cor was significantly lower than CFI_jug (4.24±1.62 vs. 5.21±1.91 min-1; p<0.001). This is explained by the finding that CFI_fem_uncor was not different to CFI_fem_cor (4.28±1.70 vs. 4.24±1.62 min-1; p = 0.611). This suggests that correction for femoral CVC does not pertain to CFI. Calculative correction of CFI_fem_uncor by multiplying CFI_fem_uncor by the ratio GEDVI_fem_uncor/GEDVI_jug resulted in CFI_fem_uncor_form which was slightly, but significantly different from the gold standard CFI_jug (5.51±2.00 vs. 5.21±1.91 min-1; p = 0.024). The agreement of measurements classified in the same category of CFI (decreased (<4.5), normal (4.5–6.5) and increased (>6.5 min-1)) was high for CFI_jug and CFI_fem_uncor_form (identical categories in 26 of 28 comparisons; p = 0.49). By contrast, the agreement with CFI_jug was significantly lower for CFI_fem_cor (14 out of 28; p<0.001) and CFI_fem_uncor (15 out of 28; p<0.001). Conclusions While the last PiCCO algorithm obviously corrects GEDVI for femoral indicator injection, this correction is not applied to CFI. Therefore, femoral TPTD indicator injection results in substantially lower values for CFI compared to TPTD using a jugular CVC. Necessarily, uncorrected CFI-values derived from femoral TPTD are misleading and have to be corrected.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Central-venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2) is a key parameter of hemodynamic monitoring and has been suggested as therapeutic goal for resuscitation. Several devices offer continuous monitoring features. The CeVOX-device (Pulsion Medical Systems) uses a fibre-optic probe inserted through a conventional central-venous catheter (CVC) to obtain continuous ScvO2. OBJECTIVES Since there is a lack of studies validating the CeVOX, we prospectively analyzed data from 24 patients with CeVOX-monitoring. To increase the yield of lower ScvO2-values, 12 patients were equipped with a femoral CVC. METHODS During the 8h study period ScvO2_CeVOX was documented immediately before withdrawal of blood to measure ScvO2 by blood gas analysis (ScvO2_BGA) 6min, 1h, 4h, 5h and 8h after the initial calibration. No further calibrations were performed. RESULTS In patients with jugular CVC (primary endpoint; 60 measurements), bias, lower and upper limits of agreement (LLOA; ULOA) and percentage error (PE) of the estimate of ScvO2 (ScvO2_CeVOX_jug) were acceptable with 0.45%, -13.0%, 13.9% and 16.6%, respectively. As supposed, ScvO2 was lower in the femoral compared to the jugular measurements (69.5±10.7 vs. 79.4±5.8%; p<0.001). While the bias (0.64%) was still acceptable, LLOA (-23.8%), ULOA (25.0%) and PE (34.5%) were substantially higher for femoral assessment of ScvO2 by the CeVOX (ScvO2_CeVOX_fem). Analysis of the entire data-pool with jugular as well as femoral CVCs allowed for a multivariate analysis which demonstrated that the position of the CVC per se was not independently associated with the bias ScvO2_CeVOX-ScvO2_BGA. The amount of the bias |ScvO2_CeVOX-ScvO2_BGA| was independently associated with the amount of the change of ScvO2_CeVOX compared to the initial calibration to ScvO2_BGA_baseline (|ScvO2_CeVOX-ScvO2_BGA_baseline|) as well as with low values of ScvO2_BGA_baseline. Furthermore, increasing time to the initial calibration was associated to the amount of the bias with borderline significance. A statistical model based on |ScvO2_CeVOX-ScvO2_BGA_baseline| and "time to last calibration" derived from an evaluation dataset (80 of 120 datasets, 16 of 24) provided a ROC-AUC of 0.903 to predict an amount of the bias |ScvO2_CeVOX-ScvO2_BGA| ≥5% in an independent validation group (40 datasets of 8 patients). CONCLUSION These findings suggest that the CeVOX device is capable to detect stability or instability of ScvO2_BGA. ScvO2_CeVOX accurately estimates ScvO2_BGA in case of stable values. However, intermittent measurement of ScvO2_BGA and re-calibration should be performed in case of substantial changes in ScvO2_CeVOX compared to baseline. Therefore, continuous measurement of ScvO2 with the CeVOX cannot replace ScvO2_BGA in instable patients. On the other hand, CeVOX might be useful for the monitoring of stable patients as a pre-test tool for more differentiated monitoring in case of changes in ScvO2_CeVOX.

Comparison of pulmonary vascular permeability index PVPI and global ejection fraction GEF derived from jugular and femoral indicator injection using the PiCCO-2 device: A prospective observational study. PLoS One 2017; 12:e0178372. [PMID: 29040264 PMCID: PMC5644983 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0178372] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2016] [Accepted: 05/11/2017] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Transpulmonary thermodilution (TPTD) is used to derive cardiac output CO, global end-diastolic volume GEDV and extravascular lung water EVLW. To facilitate interpretation of these data, several ratios have been developed, including pulmonary vascular permeability index (defined as EVLW/(0.25*GEDV)) and global ejection fraction ((4*stroke volume)/GEDV). PVPI and GEF have been associated to the aetiology of pulmonary oedema and systolic cardiac function, respectively. Several studies demonstrated that the use of femoral venous access results in a marked overestimation of GEDV. This also falsely reduces PVPI and GEF. One of these studies suggested a correction formula for femoral venous access that markedly reduced the bias for GEDV. Consequently, the last PiCCO-algorithm requires information about the CVC, and correction for femoral access has been shown. However, two recent studies demonstrated inconsistencies of the last PiCCO algorithm using incorrected GEDV for PVPI, but corrected GEDV for GEF. Nevertheless, these studies were based on mathematical analyses of data displayed in a total of 15 patients equipped with only a femoral, but not with a jugular CVC. Therefore, this study compared PVPI_fem and GEF_fem derived from femoral TPTD to values derived from jugular indicator injection in 25 patients with both jugular and femoral CVCs. Methods 54 datasets in 25 patients were recorded. Each dataset consisted of three triplicate TPTDs using the jugular venous access as the gold standard and the femoral access with (PVPI_fem_cor) and without (PVPI_fem_uncor) information about the femoral indicator injection to evaluate, if correction for femoral GEDV pertains to PVPI_fem and GEF_fem. Results PVPI_fem_uncor was significantly lower than PVPI_jug (1.48±0.47 vs. 1.84±0.53; p<0.001). Similarly, PVPI_fem_cor was significantly lower than PVPI_jug (1.49±0.46 vs. 1.84±0.53; p<0.001). This is explained by the finding that PVPI_fem_uncor was not different to PVPI_fem_cor (1.48±0.47 vs. 1.49±0.46; n.s.). This clearly suggests that correction for femoral CVC does not pertain to PVPI. GEF_fem_uncor was significantly lower than GEF_jug (20.6±5.1% vs. 25.0±6.1%; p<0.001). By contrast, GEF_fem_cor was not different to GEF_jug (25.6±5.8% vs. 25.0±6.1%; n.s.). Furthermore, GEF_fem_cor was significantly higher than GEF_fem_uncor (25.6±5.8% vs. 20.6±5.1%; p<0.001). This finding emphasizes that an appropriate correction for femoral CVC is applied to GEF_fem_cor. The extent of the correction (25.5/20.6; 124%) for GEF and the relation of PVPI_jug/PVPI_fem_uncor (1.84/1.48; 124%) are in the same range as the ratio of GEDVI_fem_uncor/GEDVI_fem_cor (1056ml/m2/821mL/m2; 129%). This further emphasizes that GEF, but not PVPI is corrected in case of femoral indicator injection. Conclusions Femoral indicator injection for TPTD results in significantly lower values for PVPI and GEF. While the last PiCCO algorithm appropriately corrects GEF, the correction is not applied to PVPI. Therefore, GEF-values can be used in case of femoral CVC, but PVPI-values are substantially underestimated.

Evaluation of an ADVanced Organ Support (ADVOS) system in a two-hit porcine model of liver failure plus endotoxemia. Intensive Care Med Exp 2017; 5:31. [PMID: 28677045 PMCID: PMC5496922 DOI: 10.1186/s40635-017-0144-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/14/2016] [Accepted: 06/07/2017] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Novel extracorporeal procedures are constantly being developed and evaluated for use in patients with sepsis. Preclinical evaluation of such procedures usually requires testing in large animal models. In the present work, the safety and efficacy of a recently developed ADVanced Organ Support (ADVOS) system in a newly developed large animal two-hit model of liver failure combined with endotoxemia were tested. Methods After establishing the model in more than 50 animals, a randomized study was performed. An inflammatory cholestatic liver injury was initially provoked in pigs. Three days after surgery, endotoxin was gradually administered during 7½ h. Animals were randomized to receive standard medical treatment either with (ADVOS group, n = 5) or without ADVOS (control group, n = 5). The ADVOS treatment was started 2½ h after endotoxemia and continued for 7 h. Survival, cardiovascular, respiratory, renal, liver, coagulation, and cerebral parameters were analyzed. Results Three days after surgery, cholestatic injury resulted in hyperbilirubinemia [5.0 mg/dl (IQR 4.3–5.9 mg/dl)], hyperammonemia [292 μg/dl (IQR 291–296 μg/dl)], leukocytosis [20.2 103/μl (IQR 17.7–21.8 103/μl)], and hyperfibrinogenemia [713 mg/dl (IQR 654–803 mg/dl)]. After endotoxemia, the ADVOS procedure stabilized cardiovascular, respiratory, and renal parameters and eliminated surrogate markers as bilirubin [2.3 (IQR 2.3–3.0) vs. 5.5 (IQR 4.6–5.6) mg/dl, p = 0.001] and creatinine [1.4 (IQR 1.1–1.7) vs. 2.3 (IQR 2.1–3.1) mg/dl, p = 0.01]. Mortality: All animals in the ADVOS group survived, while all animals in the control group expired during the 10-h observation period (p = 0.002). No adverse events related to the procedure were observed. Conclusions The ADVOS procedure showed a promising safety and efficacy profile and improved survival in a sepsis-like animal model with dysfunction of multiple organs. An amelioration of major organ functions (heart and lung) combined with removal of markers for kidney and liver function was observed.

Abstract
Introduction: We report a case of renal replacement therapy (RRT) during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) via a single venous access and analyze the feasibility of transpulmonary thermodilution (TPTD) for hemodynamic monitoring. Case report: ECMO and RRT connected into the ECMO-extracorporeal circuit were performed via a single venous access because of multiple venous thromboses. An indicator for TPTD and pulse contour analysis (PCA) was applied into the central venous catheter (CVC) placed in the right vena jugularis. TPTD and PCA demonstrated comparable cardiac index. Discussion: Congruent data for TPTD and PCA could be observed during TPTD and PCA measurements before ECMO, after ECMO and during ECMO and RRT. This might be explained by high blood flow having the lowest impact on TPTD by venous drainage in the femoral vein/distal vena cava and the TPTD indicator injection using the jugular CVC, as reported in our case. Conclusion: Hemodynamic monitoring using TPTD and PCA during ECMO/RRT is feasible and provides reliable results.
