ECMO support may be associated with improved survival in tuberculosis associated severe ARDS
This retrospective analysis from three large ECMO centers with similar SOPs suggests vv-ECMO support as a feasible approach in patients with severe Tbc-associated ARDS. Although affiliated with extended runtimes, vv-ECMO might be associated with improved survival in those patients. Vv-ECMO support should thus be considered in Tbc-associated ARDS to enable lung protective strategies during prolonged lung recovery.
