Clinical trials

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of bivalirudin in anticoagulation therapy in patients with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) compared with unfractionated heparin.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of nafamostat mesilate compared with unfractionated heparin for anticoagulation in patients with ECMO after cardiac surgery.

The goal of this observational study is to learn about the association between vasopressor exposure levels and outcomes in adults with cardiogenic shock receiving VA-ECMO. The main question it aims to answer is: Does reduced exposure to vasopressors lower the 30-day mortality in patients with cardiogenic shock when receiving ECMO support? Participants who are receiving ECMO support for cardiogenic shock as part of their regular medical care will have their data collected, including information about their vasopressor use and mortality outcomes, over the course of the study.
