A Review of the Role of Artificial Intelligence in Patients on Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation: A Scoping Review Study

Abstract

ECMO is used to deliver cardiopulmonary support in extreme failure where standard therapies are unfruitful. Although ECMO is associated with high costs and significant risks, advances in technology and clinical management have improved its safety and patient outcomes. AI/ML may provide decision support through data analysis to alert clinicians to potential safety issues, detect complications, and help inform pump/ventilator settings. The primary objective of this scoping review is to examine the applications of AI and machine learning in patients receiving various ECMO modalities, specifically veno‐arterial (VA), veno‐venous (VV), and extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR).
