摘要

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is often the last resort for escalation of treatment in patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The success of treatment is mainly determined by patient-specific factors, such as age, comorbidities, duration and invasiveness of the pre-existing ventilation treatment as well as the expertise of the treating ECMO center. In particular, the adjustment of mechanical ventilation during ongoing ECMO treatment remains controversial. Although a reduction of invasiveness of mechanical ventilation seems to be reasonable due to physiological considerations, no improvement in outcome has been demonstrated so far for the use of ultraprotective ventilation regimens.
