[If the extracorporeal lung assist comes to its limit: use and management of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in severe acute respiratory distress syndrome].
In patients with the most severe forms of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) refractory to conventional mechanical ventilation and adjunctive or rescue therapies like kinetic therapy, inhaled vasodilators or extracorporeal CO2-elimination (extracorporeal lung assist), the use of the extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) can secure gas exchange. Due to technical improvements and miniaturization, the new ECMO system is safer and simpler. Nowadays the ECMO-systems are heparin-coated, so that there is no need of therapeutic systemic anticoagulation, and thus bleeding complications are less frequent. Recent data suggests, that outcome of patients with severe ARDS treated with ECMO may improve. This review describes the function and the management of ECMO-therapy in ARDS-patients.
