BackgroundAcute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is characterized by an acute, diffuse, inflammatory lung injury, leading to increased alveolar capillary permeability, increased lung weight, and loss of aerated lung tissue (Fan, Brodie, & Slutsky, 2018). Primary treatment for ARDS is artificial mechanical ventilation (AMV) (Wu, Huang, Wu, Wang, & Lin, 2016). Given recent advances in technology, the use of veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO) to treat severe ARDS is growing rapidly (Combes et al., 2014).ObjectiveThis 49-month quantitative, retrospective inpatient EMR chart review compared if cannulation with VV-ECMO up to and including 48 hours of admission and diagnosis in adult patients 30 to 65 years of age diagnosed with ARDS, decreased duration on AMV, as compared to participants who were cannulated after 48 hours of admission and diagnosis with ARDS.MethodsA total of 110 participants were identified as receiving VV-ECMO during the study timeframe. Of the 58 participants who met all inclusion criteria, 39 participants were cannulated for VV-ECMO within 48 hours of admission and diagnosis with ARDS, and 19 participants were cannulated with VV-ECMO after 48 hours of admission and diagnosis with ARDS.ResultsData collected identified no statistically significant (p < 0.579) difference in length of days on AMV between participant groups.ConclusionsFurther studies are needed to determine if earlier initiation of VV-ECMO in adult patients with ARDS decrease time on AMV.Implications for NursingAlthough the results related to length of time on AMV did not produce statistical significance, the decreased duration of AMV in the participants who were cannulated within 48 hours (21 days vs. 27 days) may support several benefits associated with this participant population including increased knowledge of healthcare providers, decreased lung injury, earlier discharge which decreases hospital and patient cost, ability for patients to communicate sooner, decreased risk of pulmonary infection, decreased length of stay, decreased cost, and improved patient and family satisfaction.

Membrane Oxygenation

Despite advances in mechanical ventilation, severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates ranging from 26% to 58%. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a modified cardiopulmonary bypass circuit that serves as an artificial membrane lung and blood pump to provide gas exchange and systemic perfusion for patients when their own heart and lungs are unable to function adequately. ECMO is a complex network that provides oxygenation and ventilation and allows the lungs to rest and recover from respiratory failure while minimizing iatrogenic ventilator-induced lung injury. In critical care settings, ECMO is proven to improve survival rates and outcomes in patients with severe ARDS. This review defines severe ARDS; describes the ECMO circuit; and discusses recent research, optimal use of the ECMO circuit, limitations of therapy including potential complications, economic impact, and logistical factors; and discusses future research considerations.

Membrane Oxygenation

Acute lung injury and acute respiratory distress syndrome are characterized by rapid-onset respiratory failure following a variety of direct and indirect insults to the parenchyma or vasculature of the lungs. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation is a form of extracorporeal life support where an external artificial circulator carries venous blood from the patient to a gas exchange device (oxygenator) where blood becomes enriched with oxygen and has carbon dioxide removed. This blood then re-enters the patients circulation. The potential advantages of ECMO over conventional manajement may extend beyond its role in supporting patients with ARDS. ECMO may facilitate and enhance the application of lung-protective ventilation by minimizing ventilator-induced lung injury.
