Mechanical ventilation before and during veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.
INTRODUCTION Veno-Venous Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (VV ECMO) has revolutionized severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) management by decoupling gas exchange from native lung function, minimizing ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI). However, optimizing mechanical ventilation before and during extr...
