Abstract

Researchers at the University of Medicine and Pharmacy in Ho Chi Minh City have conducted a study on experimental lung transplants using venopulmonary extracorporeal membrane oxygenation as a bridge to lung transplantation. The study highlights the potential benefits of this approach, drawing insights from successful cases in South Korea and the United States. While in-hospital mortality rates are comparable to other methods, further research is needed to solidify the effectiveness of this technique in enhancing patient outcomes and reducing costs, especially in developing countries.
