Quantifying Oxygenator Performance in Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation: Validation and Transfer of the Hamilton Methodology to Long-Term Support
Background Maintaining adequate oxygen delivery is critical in extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), yet monitoring oxygenator performance remains largely dependent on reactive blood gas analysis (BGA) and subjective visual inspections. While Hamilton et al. developed a methodology to quantify gas exchange effic...
