Abstract
- The article discusses the process of weaning patients from venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), a treatment used for severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The authors highlight the lack of standardized guidelines for weaning and the variation in practices among different ECMO centers. They present findings from a study conducted at a German ECMO center, which identified risk factors for failed weaning trials. The article also compares different weaning methods and discusses the importance of considering factors such as respiratory drive and fluid management during the weaning process. The authors emphasize the need for further research to develop optimal weaning approaches. [Extracted from the article]
