1) The document discusses the emerging role of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in treating patients in trauma intensive care units.
2) ECMO can be a lifesaving treatment for respiratory failure and severe hypoxemic respiratory failure secondary to acute respiratory distress syndrome in trauma patients.
3) While experience with ECMO in trauma patients is still limited, it shows promise as a rescue therapy for severe cases when implemented by a multidisciplinary team in specialized centers.

12. ECLS organization registry which started on
1989 , now houses data on near 80’000 of
sickest pts imaginable & reported an overall
survival rate of 58% .

16. ECMO in Trauma ?
A 27 y/o male is in a high speed motor – vehicle crash , has
hemoptysis , profound hypoxemia , pneumothorax with Fallen
lung sign & a massive air leak from his Lt. Chest tube .

19. An 18 y/o male sustained multiple gunshot went through
mandible , neck and chest . He is hemodynamically stable but
he has aspirated a large amount of blood & gastric contents.
He is intubated but Spo2 is 82% on 100% FiO2 .

Conclusion:
Pumpless and pump-driven ELS systems are an excellent treatment option in
severe thoracic trauma pts with ALF and facilitate survival in an experienced trauma center
with an interdisciplinary treatment approach.
We encourage the use of vv-ECMO due to
reduced complication rates,
better oxygenation &
best short-term outcome

CONCLUSION:
vv-ECMO can be lifesaving in respiratory failure
&
Is a rescue Rx for severe hypoxemic respiratory failure
2ndary to ARDS in trauma pts
For pts with a high risk of bleeding, the use of ECMO with no
initial anticoagulation could be considered a valid option
25. A 43 y/o male with cirrhosis sustains a fall from height. CT reveals a
grade 4 liver laceration with extension towards the hepatic veins .
Following CT , his abdomen distends and he has transient fall in
blood pressure. His FAST is positive .

• 2006 to 2009
• 10 adult trauma pts
• mean age: 32+/-14 yr
• mean ISS score 73+/-4
• (v-v) ECMO for pulmonary failure (n=7)
• (v-a) ECMO in cardiopulmonary failure (n=3)
Prior to ECMO
median oxygenation ratio was 47 mmHg,
median PaCO2 was 67 mmHg
median norepinephrine was 3 mg/h
With ECMO
Cardiopulmonary failure was treated effectively
systemic gas exchange &
blood flow improved rapidly within 2 h in all pts
median paCO2 : 41
60% of our patients had recovered completely
30. Our experience : ECMO in severe hemorrhegic pt
A 36 y/o female undergone cardiac surgery due to large
pulmonary embolism , meanwhile developed massive
uncontrollable hemorrhage from pulmonary artery.
Cardiac surgeon Consulted Intensivist from OR.

32. Our experience : ECMO in severe hemorrhegic pt
• ECMO in severe pulmonary hemorrhage
• ECMO + Cardiac pump
• ECMO + Post pneumonectomy
• Pt transport to ICU with running ECMO
• ECMO assisted CPR ( ECPR)
33. A 32 y/o male who sustains a traumatic brain injury in a high speed
motor cycle crash . He undergoes a craniotomy for evacuation of
EDH . On postop day 3 , he develops bilat. C-xray infiltrates &
profoundly increased oxygen requirement.

Can you use ECLS in TBI ?
Permissive hypercapnia should be avoided
Normal ventilation goal for severe TBI pts in the absence of
cerebral herniation; PaCO2 = 35-45 mm Hg
Maintaining SBP at
≥100 mm Hg for pts 50 to 69 y/o
≥110 mm Hg for pts 15 - 49 or > 70 y/o

37. A 30 y/o male , car-pedestrian accident , with traumatic brain injury ,
lung contusion & bilat. Hemothorax , Rt. Tibia & mandibular Fx.
He undergoes craniotomy for evacuation of ICH . Thiopental infusion
started as a modality to manage severe brain edema .
5 days later , he developed bilateral chest x-ray infiltrates and
profoundly increased oxygen requirement

Our experience :
ECMO in a multiple trauma pt. ( ARDS + Brain injury)
43. ECLS use and centers providing ECLS have increased worldwide
largest growth in adult respiratory and cardiac failure
Indications are expanding
Adverse events during the course of ECLS are common and underscore the
need for skilled ECLS management & appropriately trained ECLS personnel &
teams
44. • From all ECMO implantations , all over the world , up to now ,
limited reported ECMO in trauma pts incorporate a very small
minority of overall experience of ECLS
• There is a very small & new experience with ECMO in trauma
45. • ECLS is not contraindicated in trauma
• A multidisciplinary & specialized approach
• Surgical procedures are possible under ECMO
• Carefully selected pts
• More regional studies & deeper analysis of
national and international registries
