Key information

About this study

57 patients with ARDS requiring ECMO therapy were analyzed retrospectively. 28 patients had received IgM-enriched immunoglobulin therapy (IVIG); 29 patients did not receive IVIG therapy.

Patient characteristics, like Acute Physiology And Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) and Sepsis-related organ failure assessment (SAPS) Score, preexisting diseases, origin of infection, duration of ECMO therapy were analyzed in these patients.

These patients were further analyzed regarding LOS ICU, LOS in hospital and regarding mortality.
