Abstract | Introduction: Venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-V ECMO) is recommended for the support of patients with severe COVID-19 associated severe respiratory failure (SRF). We report the characteristics and outcome of COVID-19 patients supported with V-V ECMO in a Hungarian centre. Methods: We retrospectively collected data on all patients admitted with proven SARS CoV-2 infection who received V-V ECMO support between March 2021 and May 2022. Results: Eighteen patients were placed on ECMO during this period, (5 women, age (mean ± SD) 44 ± 10 years, APACHE II score (median (interquartile range)) 12 (10-14.5)). Before ECMO support, they had been hospitalised for 6 (4-11) days. Fifteen patients received noninvasive ventilation for 4 (2-8) days, two patients had high flow nasal oxygen therapy, for one day each. They had already been intubated for 2.5 (1-6) days. Prone position was applied in 15 cases. On the day before ECMO initiation the Lung Injury Score was 3.25 (3-3.26), the PaO Conclusions: During the last three waves of the COVID-19 pandemic, we achieved a 56% ICU and a 50% hospital survival rate at our low volume centre. |
