RESUMO

PURPOSE: Extracorporeal life support (ECLS) is a cardiopulmonary support system used for the treatment of severe cardiac and/or respiratory failure. Mortality is high partly because of the severity of the condition that requires support. The use of ECLS is generally associated with heavy sedation. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the feasibility of stopping sedation, allowing extubation of patients supported by ECLS. METHODS: 196 patients supported by ECLS for a period of 4 years were included. Sedation was stopped as soon as possible to allow extubation. The 44 extubated patients were compared with non-extubated patients. Finally, 24% of patients were not extubated without a determined cause and were compared with extubated patients. RESULTS: The extubated patients had a lower incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia. In a multivariate analysis, the independent risk factors for death were the duration of ECLS, age and lack of extubation. Stopping sedation and extubation are feasible in selected patients under ECLS. CONCLUSIONS: This strategy could be a survival factor.
