This is a reply to the letter titled "Understanding lactate and its clearance during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for supporting refractory cardiogenic shock patients" by Eva Rully Kurniawati et al. In response to the concerns raised about our paper published in BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, titled "Association between serum lactate levels and mortality in patients with cardiogenic shock receiving mechanical circulatory support: a multicenter retrospective cohort study," we have addressed the confounding bias on the population included and the use of VA-ECMO and Impella CP. Furthermore, we have provided new data on the correlation of oxygen supply and lactate levels at admission of cardiogenic shock.
这是对 Eva Rully Kurniawati 等人题为“理解体外膜肺氧合支持难治性心原性休克患者过程中的乳酸及其清除率”的信件的回复。针对我们发表在 BMC 心血管疾病杂志上的题为“机械循环支持治疗心原性休克患者血清乳酸水平与死亡率的相关性:一项多中心回顾性队列研究”的论文中提出的担忧,我们已经解决了纳入人群中的混杂偏差以及 VA-ECMO 和 Impella CP 的使用问题。此外,我们还提供了心原性休克患者入院时氧供和乳酸水平相关性的新数据。
