Membrane Oxygenation

Provision of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation as part of support escalation in severe refractory acute respiratory failure in England is provided by five specialist centres that operate within a well-defined quality and safety framework. We conducted a qualitative study of the extracorporeal membrane oxygenation retrieval service provided by one of the five centres. We analysed 176 consecutive debrief reports written between October 2013 and April 2018 by the consultant. Main identified issues were short delays in retrieval predominantly due to insufficient communication or equipment failure. All issues were addressed in subsequent practice. Our results suggest a need for improved communication between the referring intensive care unit and retrieving team. Our findings highlight the value of regular reflection-based evaluation to ensure continued provision of safe and efficient service.

Membrane Oxygenation

Iatrogenic tracheal injuries are rare but potentially serious complications of endotracheal intubation that frequently require lung isolation to repair. This is not tolerated in patients with severe respiratory failure. We describe a case in a patient with acute respiratory distress syndrome, repaired using veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.
