ARDS Related to Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome-Coronavirus (SARS-CoV) 2 Acute Refractory Heart Failure Related to SARS-CoV 2 |
The main objective of this study is to evaluate the hospital survival of COVID-19 patients supported by venovenous or venoarterial ECMO in a multicenter registry.
The secondary objectives are to describe the characteristics of COVID-19 patients who have received ECMO support, to identify the risk factors associated with hospital mortality, to analyze the outcomes after ECMO weaning including survival at day 28 and day 90, and to analyze the utility of a circulatory support mobile unit in a severe pandemic
Inclusions are both prospective and retrospective in order to collect data over the whole pandemic
