Abstract

Objectives: Review some complications in patients using Heparin in cardiopulmonary bypass. Subjects and methods: 67 ECMO patients from September 2019 to September 2020 in Bach Mai Hospital used anticoagulation as Heparin. Results: The percentage of women accounted for 61.2%. Myocarditis is the group with the highest rate of 38.8%. Complications were encountered as follows: Major bleeding (10.7%), minor bleeding (76.1%), thrombosis (7.4%), no cases of membrane occlusion, the rate of DIC accounted for 38.04%. Common bleeding sites: catheter foot (68.6%), ECMO cannula (46.3%). Conclusions: ECMO patients receiving heparin anticoagulation had a high rate of bleeding and a low rate of thrombosis, no cases of membrane occlusion, and a 38.04% DIC rate.
