Summary: | Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation is a modern therapeutic strategy aimed to stabilize vital function in a patient suffering from severe circulatory failure and refractory hypoxia.Purpose. To describe two clinical cases of venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in neonates with mеconium aspiration syndrome, complicated by persistent pulmonary hypertension and refractory hypoxia during medical evacuation.Material and methods. The authors performed a comprehensive analysis of the condition specifics based on clinical and instrumental work up.Results. We demonstrated that early application of venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in neonates with meconium aspiration syndrome promotes the quickest possible stabilization and reverse of hypoxia and low cardiac output.Conclusion. Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in neonates with meconium aspiration syndrome and refractory hypoxemia is a life-saving procedure, that can be applied during medical evacuation by qualified medical staff. |
