Emergency cardiopulmonary support (CPS) systems for pediatric patients have not achieved widespread acceptance because they have been limited by extended setup times and large priming volumes requiring blood products. To address these limitations, we developed a miniaturized CPS system which can be rapidly assembled with a small bloodless priming volume. This system was successfully utilized in two infants with congenital heart disease in whom emergent cardiopulmonary support was instituted outside the operating room. The pediatric CPS system proved safe and effective in allowing the salvage of both patients. Further study of this system is warranted to evaluate potential future applications.
儿科患者的紧急心肺支持(CPS)系统尚未得到广泛应用,因为它们受到设置时间长和需要血液制品的大量预充量的限制。为了解决这些限制,我们开发了一种小型化的CPS系统,该系统可以快速组装,预充量小且无需血液。该系统已成功应用于两名患有先天性心脏病的婴儿,他们在手术室之外接受了紧急心肺支持。儿科CPS系统在挽救两名患者方面被证明是安全有效的。有必要对该系统进行进一步研究,以评估其未来的潜在应用。
