Renal microcirculatory impairment on contrast enhanced ultrasound predicts persistent renal impairment in cardiogenic shock patients receiving venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

Abstract Acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of the most frequent complications in patients with cardiogenic shock (CS) receiving veno‑arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO). Microcirculation dysfunction is an important mechanism and it can be effectively evaluated b...
