Risk Factors of Bleeding Under Veno Arterial Membrane Oxygenation

Risk Factors of Bleeding in Patients Undergoing Peripheral Veno Arterial Extra Corporeal Membrane Oxygenation

Veno arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA ECMO) is used, for cardiogenic shock, refractory cardiac arrest and post cardiotomy cardiac failure. Bleeding is frequent complications during VA ECMO and is associated with increased mortality. The aim of our study was to identify early factors associated with major bleeding in patients supported by VA ECMO

Inclusion Criteria: Patients over 18 years treated by peripheral veno arterial membrane oxygenation

Exclusion Criteria: None
