RESUMO
Presentamos a 2pacientes con shock cardiogénico que desarrollaron disfunción ventricular izquierda severa debido a una válvula aórtica disfuncionante mientras estaban en extra-corporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO)-VA periférica. Los pacientes fueron tratados combinando un dispositivo de asistencia mecánica para el ventrículo izquierdo (VI) y ECMO-VA central para apoyar el ventrículo derecho, proporcionando así una asistencia respiratoria y circulatoria adecuada que les permitió optar a una recuperación completa, o bien llegar a ser candidatos a trasplante cardiaco. Por lo tanto, recomendamos dicha combinación en aquellos pacientes que desarrollan disfunción grave del VI mientras reciben apoyo de ECMO-VA periférica.(AU)
We report 2patients with cardiogenic shock that developed severe left ventricular dysfunction due to a non-opening aortic valve while on peripheral VA-ECMO (Veno-Arterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenator). Patients were managed combining a LV (Left Ventricle) mechanical assist device, and central VA ECMO to support the right ventricle, thus providing full circulatory and respiratory assistance. Patients were able to bridge to cardiac transplantation. We therefore recommend such combination in patients with severe LV dysfunction while on p-ECMO (peripheral ECMO) support.(AU)
