Comparison of ECMO, IABP and ECMO + IABP in the Postoperative Period in Patients with Postcardiotomy Shock

<b>Background</b>: This study aims to assess the outcomes and complications of patients who received veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) and intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) support after cardiac surgery at Ankara University Heart Center between 2000 and 2023. <...

description <b>Background</b>: This study aims to assess the outcomes and complications of patients who received veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) and intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) support after cardiac surgery at Ankara University Heart Center between 2000 and 2023. <b>Methods</b>: We have carried out a retrospective analysis that included 255 patients. Among them, 98 received IABP, 103 received VA-ECMO, and 54 received both VA-ECMO and IABP. Preoperative and postoperative assessments were carried out, including evaluations of left ventricular function and serum creatinine levels. Primary outcomes included 30-day survival and successful VA-ECMO weaning. Complications such as bleeding, sepsis, liver failure, wound infection, and peripheral ischemia were also assessed. <b>Results</b>: The weaning rate from VA-ECMO was significantly higher in the combined VA-ECMO and IABP group (81.4%) compared with the other groups (<i>p</i> = 0.004). One-year survival was also higher in the combined group (75.9%) (<i>p</i> = 0.002). Complications or renal function did not differ significantly among the groups. The primary indication for mechanical support was coronary artery bypass grafting. <b>Conclusions</b>: In conclusion, the combined use of VA-ECMO and IABP therapy led to improved weaning and survival rates without increasing the risk of complications. These findings suggest that a combined approach may be beneficial for selected patients with severe cardiac dysfunction post surgery.
