Patients with cardiopulmonary failure may not be fully supported with typical configurations of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), either veno-arterial (VA) or veno-venous (VV). Veno-arterial-venous (VAV)-ECMO is a technique used to support the cardiopulmonary systems during periods of inadequate gas exchange and perfusion. In the severe case of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which simultaneously affects the heart and lung, VAV-ECMO may improve a patient's recovery potential. We report the case of a 72-year-old woman with acute respiratory distress syndrome and circulatory failure following COVID-19, who was treated with VAV-ECMO.
心肺衰竭的患者可能无法通过典型的体外膜肺氧合(ECMO)配置(即静脉-动脉[VA]或静脉-静脉[VV])得到充分支持。静脉-动脉-静脉(VAV)-ECMO 是一种用于在气体交换和灌注不足期间支持心肺系统的技术。在同时影响心脏和肺部的 2019 年冠状病毒病(COVID-19)的严重情况下,VAV-ECMO 可能会提高患者的恢复潜力。我们报告了一例 72 岁女性 COVID-19 后急性呼吸窘迫综合征和循环衰竭的病例,该患者接受了 VAV-ECMO 治疗。
