Abstract
Objective: Veno-arterial extra-corporeal membrane oxygenation (va-ECMO) is used to support patients with refractory post-cardiotomy failure. Serum lactate level is a marker for tissue hypoxia and associated with higher mortality in critically ill patients. We analyzed the association between the peak lactate in the first 24h of va-ECMO therapy and early morbidity and mortality.
