Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Pulmonology
  • Transplantation Medicine

Background:

  • The Lung Allocation Score (LAS) system has increased the use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for bridging lung transplantation.
  • Challenges remain in patient selection, implementation, and management of ECMO bridging lung transplantation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review and summarize current data on ECMO bridging lung transplantation.
  • To identify key factors influencing the success of ECMO bridging lung transplantation.

Main Methods:

  • Extensive literature review of ECMO bridging lung transplantation data.

Main Results:

  • ECMO bridging lung transplantation is more common due to improved allocation systems and ECMO technology.
  • Patient selection and pre-transplant assessment are critical.
  • Optimal anticoagulation strategies for ECMO are lacking, and predictive scores have limitations.
  • Different bridge strategies have pros and cons, requiring individualized selection.

Conclusions:

  • ECMO bridging lung transplantation is indicated for patients awaiting lung transplants when other support fails or hemodynamic instability occurs.
  • Age (≥65 years) and reversible multiple organ dysfunction are not absolute contraindications.
