Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation as a bridge to lung transplantation: 5-year outcomes and bridge to decision in a large, older cohort

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation as a bridge to lung transplantation: 5-year outcomes and bridge to decision in a large, older cohort

Abstract Background Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) as a bridge to lung transplantation (BTT) has expanded considerably, though evidence-based selection criteria and long-term outcome data are lacking.
