Determining an optimal central cannulation strategy for ambulatory veno-venous extracorporeal life support

Key Points

The aim is to identify the best central cannulation method for effective ambulatory veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.
Implemented a dual site cannulation configuration
Used right atrial drainage and right ventricular reinfusion
Evaluated effectiveness in ambulatory settings
Dual site cannulation is suggested as optimal for durability
Improved outcomes noted in ambulatory extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

Abstract

Our results suggest a dual site cannulation configuration with right atrial drainage and right ventricular reinfusion may be optimal for durable ambulatory extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. Future studies will evaluate the cannula in longer-duration, ambulatory models.
