Low flow rate alters haemostatic parameters in an ex-vivo extracorporeal membrane oxygenation circuit

Abstract Background Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a life-saving modality used to manage cardiopulmonary failure refractory to conventional medical and surgical therapies. Despite advances in ECMO equipment, bleeding and thrombosis remain significant complications. While the flow rate...
