Does extracorporeal mechanical oxygenation improve hemodynamic stability in an infant with congenital junctional ectopic tachycardia?
ECMO can serve as an effective bridge to recovery for infants with life-threatening congenital junctional ectopic tachycardia refractory to initial medical therapy.
Darst et al. (2007) conducted a case report in Congenital junctional ectopic tachycardia (n=1). Extracorporeal mechanical oxygenation was evaluated. Extracorporeal mechanical oxygenation is a viable option to achieve hemodynamic stability in infants with congenital junctional ectopic tachycardia refractory to medical therapy.
