Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation as a Method of Mechanical Support of Blood Circulation in Endovascular Myocardial Revascularization with Underlying Cardiogenic Shock: a Case Report
Abstract
Today, the use of mechanical circulatory support to maintain proper hemodynamics in percutaneous coronary interventions in high-risk patients opens up new avenues for treating such challenging patients. Moreover, it has enabled to treat cases that were once considered overwhelming. The safety and efficacy of using the extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) technique is currently being widely studied, however, the literature describes only isolated cases of using this technique when performing percutaneous angioplasty in patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock. In this clinical case, an example of ECMO connection for endovascular myocardial revascularization during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in a patient with myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock is described.
