Abstract

Venovenous (VV) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has been used as a bridge to lung transplantation with acceptable outcomes. We hypothesized that venoarterial (VA) ECMO, as part of a multidisciplinary ECMO program, yields similar outcomes as VV ECMO as a bridge in lung transplantation.
