To describe ventilation strategies used during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for neonatal respiratory failure among level IV neonatal ICUs (NICUs).
Design: Cross-sectional electronic survey.
Setting: Email-based Research Electronic Data Capture survey.
Patients: Neonates undergoing ECMO for respiratory failure at level IV NICUs.
Interventions: A 40-question survey was sent to site sponsors of regional referral neonatal ECMO centers participating in the Children's Hospitals Neonatal Consortium. Reminder emails were sent at 2- and 4-week intervals.
Measurements and main results: Twenty ECMO centers responded to the survey. Most primarily use venoarterial ECMO (65%); this percentage is higher (90%) for congenital diaphragmatic hernia. Sixty-five …
