ABSTRACT
Veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV ECMO) is used as a treatment modality in those who fail to respond to conventional care. Hypoxia and medications used in the intensive care unit may increase risk for atrial arrhythmias (AA). This study aims to evaluate the impact of AA on post-VV ECMO outcome. A retrospective review of patients who were placed on VV ECMO between October 2016 and October 2021. One hundred forty-five patients were divided into two groups, AA and no AA. Baseline characteristic and potential risk factors were assessed. Uni- and multivariate analysis using logistic regression models were constructed to evaluate the predictors of mortality between groups. Survival between groups was estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method using the log-rank test. Advanced age with history of coronary artery disease and hypertension were associated with increased risk to develop AA post-VV ECMO placement ( p value < 0.05). Length on ECMO, time intubated, hospital length of stay, and sepsis were significantly increased in patients in the AA group ( p value < 0.05). There was no difference in the overall mortality between the two groups. AAs were associated with worse hospital course and complications but no difference in overall mortality rate. Age and cardiovascular disease seem to be predisposing risk factors for this. Further studies are needed to investigate potential strategies to prevent AAs development in this population.
