ECMO, or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, is a lifesaver for kids with severe breathing problems. It's like a temporary lung, giving their own lungs a break to heal. Doctors are always learning more about how to use it best. New tech and better ways to manage ECMO are changing how doctors treat kids. They're picking the right patients and using better methods.

You might be wondering what happens when the right side of the heart gets injured while on a special life-support machine called ECMO. This machine helps people with lung problems breathe better. When the right ventricle, the heart's right side, gets injured, it's called Right Ventricular Injury (RVI). This is a big deal because it can lead to death in some cases. Do...
In recent years, doctors have started using extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) more often in complex thoracic surgeries. This tool helps patients who might not be suitable for surgery otherwise. ECMO is like a backup system that provides oxygen and supports blood flow. It's especially useful when normal breathing machines aren't enough or they get in the way ...
Fluid management is tricky for patients on veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO) with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Too much fluid can make things worse. So, predicting how well a patient will respond to fluids is crucial. A study in an intensive care unit (ICU) looked at 51 such patients in the prone position (PP). They measured cha...
Have you ever heard of a machine that can help people breathe while they're sick? One of these machines is called ECMO, which stands for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. It's like a big helping hand for people struggling to breathe due to lung problems. Doctors use ECMO to give these patients some extra time to get better or prepare for a lung transplant. Now, y...
Imagine you're in the intensive care unit (ICU), and doctors are trying to figure out how well you'll do after a big heart support treatment called venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO). They use different scores to guess your chances, but which one is the best? A group of doctors at one hospital looked into this. They checked out four scores: t...
Indonesia's micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) have been growing steadily, but the financing they receive from Sharia banks hasn't kept pace. This study aims to figure out why. It turns out that banks' strategies for collecting funds from third parties have a lot to do with it. Sharia banks need to step up their game in gathering funds from various sources...
Indonesia sees more small businesses every year, but Sharia banks aren't keeping up. They're financing fewer small businesses, even though total deposits are growing. This study looks into how much money comes from outsiders (third parties) affects how much Sharia banks lend to small businesses. It also checks if this lending helps the banks make more profit. The ban...
