A novel ‘shunt fraction’ method to derive native cardiac output during liberation from central VA ECMO

Abstract The Fick principle is an established method to quantify intracardiac shunts. The Fick principle has also found utility in the practice of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). This report describes a novel ‘shunt fraction’ method to calculate intrinsic cardiac output in central (right...
