Impact of extracorporeal CPR with transcatheter heart pump support (ECPELLA) on improvement of short-term survival and neurological outcome in patients with refractory cardiac arrest – A single-site retrospective cohort study

Impact of extracorporeal CPR with transcatheter heart pump support (ECPELLA) on improvement of short-term survival and neurological outcome in patients with refractory cardiac arrest – A single-site retrospective cohort study

Aim: Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (E-CPR) using veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) is a novel lifesaving method for refractory cardiac arrest. Although VA-ECMO preserves end-organ perfusion, it may affect left ventricular (LV) recovery due to increased LV loa...
