Project description:ObjectivesThe study investigated the impact of prone positioning during venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support for coronavirus disease 2019 acute respiratory failure on the patient outcome.DesignAn observational study of venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation patients. We used a multistate survival model to compare the outcomes of patients treated with or without prone positioning during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, which incorporates the dynamic nature of prone positioning and adjusts for potential confounders.SettingSeventy-two international institutions participating in the Coronavirus Disease 2019 Critical Care Consortium international registry.PatientsCoronavirus disease 2019 patients who were supported by venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation during the study period.InterventionNone.Measurements and main resultsThere were 232 coronavirus disease 2019 patients at 72 participating institutions who were supported with venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation during the study period from February 16, 2020, to October 31, 2020. Proning was used in 176 patients (76%) before initiation of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and in 67 patients (29%) during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. Survival to hospital discharge was 33% in the extracorporeal membrane oxygenation prone group versus 22% in the extracorporeal membrane oxygenation supine group. Prone positioning during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support was associated with reduced mortality (hazard ratio, 0.31; 95% CI, 0.14-0.68).ConclusionsOur study highlights that prone positioning during venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support for refractory coronavirus disease 2019-related acute respiratory distress syndrome is associated with reduced mortality. Given the observational nature of the study, a randomized controlled trial of prone positioning on venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation is needed to confirm these findings.

Project description:BackgroundProne positioning (PP) improves oxygenation and respiratory mechanics and is associated with lower mortality in patients with moderate to severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Despite this, some patients develop refractory hypoxemia and hypercapnia requiring venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV ECMO) support and are usually cared for in supine position. The physiologic and outcome benefits of routine PP of patients during VV ECMO remains unclear. Hence, we conducted the systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the outcome benefits of PP for patients with ARDS being treated with VV ECMO.MethodsAfter registration with PROSPERO (CRD42020199723), MEDLINE, EMBASE, Scopus and Cochrane databases were searched for relevant studies that reported PP in more than 10 adult patients supported with VV ECMO from origin to 1 March 2021. Studies were reviewed for quality using appropriate Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) checklists, and certainty of evidence was assessed using the GRADE approach. The random-effects model (DerSimonian and Laird) was used. The primary outcome of interest was cumulative survival. Secondary outcomes were intensive care unit length of stay (ICU LOS) and ECMO duration. Changes in arterial blood gas (ABG) values, ventilator mechanics and complication rates were also studied.ResultsOf 812 potentially relevant publications, 12 studies (640 patients) met our inclusion criteria. Due to overlapping study populations, 11 studies were included in the final meta-analysis. Cumulative survival in patients that underwent PP was 57% (95% CI 41.9-71.4, high certainty). Patients that underwent PP had longer ICU LOS (+ 14.5 days, 95% CI 3.4-25.7, p = 0.01) and ECMO duration (+ 9.6 days, 95% CI 5.5-13.7, p < 0.0001). After PP, patients had significantly higher PaO2/FiO2 ratio, lower PaCO2 and reduced ventilator driving pressure, and no major complications were reported.ConclusionsPP during VV ECMO appears safe with a cumulative survival of 57% and may result in longer ECMO runs and ICU LOS. However, evidence from appropriately designed randomized trials is needed prior to widespread adoption of PP on VV ECMO.

Project description:BackgroundProne positioning (PP) reduces mortality of patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The potential benefit of prone positioning maneuvers during venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is unknown. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between the use of prone positioning during extracorporeal support and ICU mortality in a pooled population of patients from previous European cohort studies.MethodsWe performed a pooled individual patient data analysis of European cohort studies which compared patients treated with prone positioning during ECMO (Prone group) to "conventional" ECMO management (Supine group) in patients with severe ARDS.Results889 patients from five studies were included. Unadjusted ICU mortality was 52.8% in the Supine Group and 40.8% in the Prone group. At a Cox multiple regression analysis PP during ECMO was not significantly associated with a reduction of ICU mortality (HR 0.67 95% CI: 0.42-1.06). Propensity score matching identified 227 patients in each group. ICU mortality of the matched samples was 48.0% and 39.6% for patients in the Supine and Prone group, respectively (p = 0.072).ConclusionsIn a large population of ARDS patients receiving venovenous extracorporeal support, the use of prone positioning during ECMO was not significantly associated with reduced ICU mortality. The impact of this procedure will have to be definitively assessed by prospective randomized controlled trials.

Project description:BackgroundThe effect of prone positioning (PP) on respiratory mechanics remains uncertain in patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) requiring venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO).MethodsWe prospectively analyzed the effects of PP on respiratory mechanics from continuous data with over a thousand time points during 16-h PP sessions in patients with COVID-19 and ARDS under VV-ECMO conditions. The evolution of respiratory mechanical and oxygenation parameters during the PP sessions was evaluated by dividing each PP session into four time quartiles: first quartile: 0-4 h, second quartile: 4-8 h, third quartile: 8-12 h, and fourth quartile: 12-16 h.ResultsOverall, 38 PP sessions were performed in 10 patients, with 3 [2-5] PP sessions per patient. Seven (70%) patients were responders to at least one PP session. PP significantly increased the PaO2/FiO2 ratio by 14 ± 21% and compliance by 8 ± 15%, and significantly decreased the oxygenation index by 13 ± 18% and driving pressure by 8 ± 12%. The effects of PP on respiratory mechanics but not on oxygenation persisted after supine repositioning. PP-induced changes in different respiratory mechanical parameters and oxygenation started as early as the first-time quartile, without any difference in PP-induced changes among the different time quartiles. PP-induced changes in driving pressure (-14 ± 14 vs. -6 ± 10%, p = 0.04) and mechanical power (-11 ± 13 vs. -0.1 ± 12%, p = 0.02) were significantly higher in responders (increase in PaO2/FiO2 ratio > 20%) than in non-responder patients.ConclusionsIn patients with COVID-19 and severe ARDS, PP under VV-ECMO conditions improved the respiratory mechanical and oxygenation parameters, and the effects of PP on respiratory mechanics persisted after supine repositioning.

Project description:BackgroundProne positioning (PP) has shown to improve survival in patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). To this point, it is unclear if PP is also beneficial for ARDS patients treated with veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV ECMO) support.MethodsWe report retrospective data of a single-centre registry of patients with severe ARDS requiring VV ECMO support between October 2010 and May 2018. Patients were allocated to the PP group if PP was performed during VV ECMO treatment or the supine positioning group. VV ECMO weaning success and hospital survival were analysed before and after propensity score matching.ResultsA total of 158 patients could be analysed, and 38 patients (24.1%) received PP. There were no significant differences in VV ECMO weaning rate (47.4% vs. 46.7%, p = 0.94) and hospital survival (36.8% vs. 36.7%, p = 0.98) between the prone and supine groups, respectively. The analysis of 38 propensity score matched pairs also showed no difference in hospital survival (36.8% vs. 36.8%, p = 1.0) or VV ECMO weaning rate (47.4% vs. 44.7%, p = 0.82). Hospital survival was superior in the subgroup of patients treated with early PP (cutoff < 17 h via Youden's Index) as compared to late or no PP (81.8% vs. 33.3%, p = 0.02).ConclusionIn this propensity score matched cohort of severe ARDS patients requiring VV ECMO support, prone positioning at any time was not associated with improved weaning or survival. However, early initiation of prone positioning was linked to a significant reduction of hospital mortality.

Project description:PurposeResearch has shown that prone positioning (PP) improves the survival of patients receiving venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-V ECMO) for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). However, the reported impact of PP duration on the outcome of V-V ECMO patients with ARDS varies across studies.MethodsA meta-analysis approach was used to identify studies that investigated the impact of PP duration on the outcome of ARDS patients who were treated with V-V ECMO; the following databases were used: MEDLINE, Embase, Wanfang, and the China National Knowledge Infrastructure. The primary outcome was cumulative survival. Secondary outcomes were length of stay in an intensive care unit, exchange of arterial blood gases, and adverse events.ResultsA total of 8 studies were included in the final meta-analysis. Patients with longer duration of PP (≥12 h) had a longer survival period (risk ratio: 1.24; 95% confidence interval: 1.00, 1.54]) than those with PP < 12 h. There was no evidence of publication bias across the studies.ConclusionOur results imply that a longer duration of PP ≥ 12 h might improve the outcome of patients with ARDS who receive V-V ECMO therapy.

Project description:When determining extracorporeal oxygen transfer (V ML O 2 ) during venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV ECMO) dissolved oxygen is often considered to play a subordinate role due to its poor solubility in blood plasma. This study was designed to assess the impact of dissolved oxygen on systemic oxygenation in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) on VV ECMO support by differentiating between dissolved and hemoglobin-bound extracorporeal oxygen transfer. We calculated both extracorporeal oxygen transfer based on blood gas analysis using the measuring energy expenditure in extracorporeal lung support patients (MEEP) protocol and measured oxygen uptake by the native lung with indirect calorimetry. Over 20% of V ML O 2 and over 10% of overall oxygen uptake (VO 2 total ) were realized as dissolved oxygen. The transfer of dissolved oxygen mainly depended on ECMO blood flow (BF ML ). In patients with severely impaired lung function dissolved oxygen accounted for up to 28% of VO 2 total . A clinically relevant amount of oxygen is transferred as physically dissolved fraction, which therefore needs to be considered when determining membrane lung function, manage ECMO settings or guiding the weaning procedure.

Project description:PurposePrevious studies support the potential efficacy of venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (vvECMO) for improving survival in severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) cases. Prone positioning (PP) has been shown to improve the outcomes of moderate-to-severe ARDS patients. Few studies and no randomized controlled trials have evaluated the effect of PP performed in ECMO patients.MethodsWe performed a systematic review and meta-analysis examining the effect of prone positioning for ARDS patients receiving vvECMO on survival. All authors were contacted to obtain complementary information not mentioned in the original articles. The main objective was to compare 28-day survival in vvECMO patients with PP to vvECMO patients without PP (controls).ResultsThirteen studies with a combined population of 1836 patients satisfied the inclusion criteria. PP was associated with a significant improvement in 28-day survival (503 survivors among 681 patients in the PP group [74%; 95% CI 71-77] vs. 450 survivors among 770 patients in the control group [58%, 95% CI 55-62]; RR 1.31 [95% CI 1.21-1.41]; I2 22% [95% CI 0-62%]; P < 0.0001). Survival was also improved in terms of other endpoints (60-day survival, 90-day survival, ICU survival, and hospital survival). In contrast, the duration of mechanical ventilation was increased in vvECMO patients with PP (mean difference 11.4 days [95% CI 9.2-13.5]; 0.64 [95% CI 0.50-0.78]; I2 8%; P < 0.0001).ConclusionAccording to this meta-analysis, survival was improved when prone positioning was used in ARDS patients receiving vvECMO. The impact of this combination on survival should be investigated in prospective randomized controlled trials.

Project description:BackgroundCurrent data supporting the use of prone positioning (PP) during venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO) in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) are limited. This prospective randomized controlled study aimed to determine whether PP implemented within 24 hours of ECMO can improve survival in these patients.MethodsFrom June 2021 to July 2023, 97 adult patients receiving VV-ECMO for ARDS in three centers were enrolled and 1:1 randomized into PP (n=49) and control groups (n=48). Patients in the PP group receiving prone positioning, while the control group were maintained in the supine position. The primary outcome was 30-day survival, and secondary outcomes included in-hospital survival and other clinical outcomes.ResultsAll 97 patients were included for analysis. Patient characteristics did not significantly differ between the two groups. The median duration of PP was 81 hours, and the median number of PP sessions was 5 times. PP improved oxygenation and ventilator parameters. The incidence of complications during PP was low, with pressure sores being the most frequent (10.2%). The 30-day survival was significantly higher in the PP group (67.3% vs. 45.8%; P=0.033), as was in-hospital survival (61.2% vs. 39.6%; P=0.033). In the PP group, the successful ECMO weaning rate was significantly higher (77.5% vs. 50.0%; P=0.005), and the duration of ECMO support was significantly shorter {10 [8-11] vs. 10 [8-14] days; P=0.038}. However, in subgroup analysis of COVID patients the 30-day survival, in-hospital survival, successful ECMO weaning rate and the duration of ECMO support did not differ between the groups. The duration of mechanical ventilation, length of intensive care unit stay, and length of hospital stay did not significantly differ between the groups.ConclusionsWhen initiated within 24 hours of ECMO, PP can improve 30-day survival in patients with ARDS receiving VV-ECMO. In addition, it may improve the successful ECMO weaning rate and reduce the duration of ECMO support. However, considering the limitations, more strictly designed, large sample prospective randomized controlled trials are proposed.Trial registrationChinese Clinical Trial Registry ChiCTR2300075326.
