ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Venous-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is an established technique for intraoperative cardiopulmonary support in patients undergoing lung transplantation. Patients with pulmonary fibrosis have a higher risk to require it. The aim of this study was to identify risk factors for the need of intraoperative ECMO use.METHODS:
Records of patients undergoing lung transplantation for pulmonary fibrosis at our institution between January 2010 and May 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. Univariate logistic regression analysis was used for statistical identification of risk factors.RESULTS:
There were 105 patients (34%) who required intraoperative ECMO support (ECMO+ group), and 203 (66%) did not (ECMO- group). Preoperative proof of pulmonary hypertension was identified as a risk factor for intraoperative ECMO support (odds ratio [OR], 3.8; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.2-6.5; P < .01). Revealed mean pulmonary arterial pressure values exceeding 50 mm Hg and pulmonary vascular resistance values exceeding 9.4 Wood units were identified as risk factors for the need of intraoperative ECMO use with a prediction probability of 70%. Increased recipient body surface area (OR, 0.2; 95% CI, 0.1-0.5; P < .01) emerged as a protective factor against intraoperative ECMO (Hosmer-Lemeshow statistic, P = .71) as well as higher cardiac output (OR, 0.7; 95% CI, 0.6-0.9; P < .01). The postoperative course was more complicated in the ECMO+ group, whereas survival at 5 years did not differ among groups (70% vs 69%, P = .79).CONCLUSIONS:
Pulmonary hypertension with elevated pulmonary vascular resistance values predicts the need of intraoperative ECMO in patients receiving lung transplantation for pulmonary fibrosis. Although the postoperative course was more complicated in the ECMO+ group, long-term survival did not differ significantly.
