Abstract
Introduction: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a highly invasive method of cardiac and/or pulmonary support for critically ill patients where less invasive therapies have failed. Hospital-acquired infection (HAI) is a frequent and serious complication of ECMO and is reported in up to 64% of patients. Limited data on HAI exists in these patients in Australia and New Zealand. We aim to determine HAI prevalence in patients receiving ECMO.
