Introduction

In patients with severe ARDS refractory to conventional mechanical ventilation, venous-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (v-vECMO) is a rescue therapy able to restore normal values of PaO2 and PaCO2, maintaining the lung at rest. Hypoxemia and hypercap-nia occurring in patients with severe ARDS may nega-tively affect cerebral autoregulation.

Objectives

The hypothesis of the present study was that, in patients with severe ARDS, impaired cerebral autoregulation due to gas exchange derangement, may be restored by appli-cation of v-vECMO.

Methods

Clinical prospective observational study. Inclusion cri-teria: severe ARDS (P/F ≤ 100), requiring v-vECMO. Exclusion criteria: previous diagnosed neurological dis-eases. The following parameters were recorded before (pre) and after institution of v-vECMO (post): mean

arterial pressure (MAP), cerebral blood flow velocity in middle cerebral artery (MCA FV) by transcranial Dop-pler, and alveolar gas exchange (PaCO2, PaO2). Cerebral autoregulation was assessed by Pearson linear regression coefficient (Mx index) between MCA FV and MAP during spontaneous fluctuations of MAP (cut-off of Mx≥ 0.2 was adopted to define impaired autoregulation).

Results

Five severe ARDS patients were enrolled. Three female with mean age of 40.2 ± 16.5, APACHE II 33 ± 6.4, SAPS II 60.4 ± 21.85, secondary to influenza H1N1 pneumonia (n = 3), cystic fibrosis (n = 1), pleural empyema (n = 1), duration of v-vECMO of 16 days (range 2-46). See Table 1.

Patient 4 evolved to brain death on day 1 and was then excluded.

Paired t-test was used for analysis. MAP was 82 ± 9 and 94 ± 17, pre and post ECMO respectively. Mx significantly changed from 0.41 ± 0.2 to 0.13 ± 0.16 (p = 0.009); both PaO2 and PaCO2 significantly improved (p = 0.05).

Conclusions

In patients with severe ARDS our preliminary data sug-gest that v-vECMO is able to restore cerebral autoregu-lation that is impaired because of severe gas exchange derangement.
