Cerebral and Peripheral Tissue Oxygenation in Children supported on ECMO for Cardio-Respiratory failure

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a rescue therapy for patients with cardio-respiratory failure. Establishing, maintaining and weaning from ECMO may increase the risk for intracranial injury. We used a dual channel near infrared system to monitor cerebral and peripheral tissue oxygenatio...
