Abstract

A terapia ECMO é indicada em pacientes com patologia respiratória e/ou cardíaca reversível, quando a recuperação e a decanulação são viáveis. O circuito ECMO é composto por vários componentes que podem fornecer oxigenação e substituir a função cardíaca, dependendo da modalidade empregada (ECMO V-V ou V-A). Pacientes em ECMO possuem requisitos clínicos e farmacológicos especiais para otimizar a tolerância e a segurança durante o tratamento.
