Abstract

Study objectives: Describe the prevalence, severity, and course of platelets in ECMO patients in the intensive care center. Study subjects: 39 ECMO patients at Bach Mai Hospital's Intensive Care Center from September 2021 to July 2022. Methods: This is a descriptive study. Results: Thrombocytopenia was observed in 39/39 (100%) ECMO patients in the intensive care center, in which the average day of onset of thrombocytopenia was 1.7±0.8 days. Conclusion: Thrombocytopenia is common in ECMO patients, regardless of the type of ECMO mode. Thrombocytopenia is related to ECMO duration. The underlying mechanisms are multifactorial, and understanding and management are still limited. Further research to design appropriate strategies and protocols for its monitoring, management, or prevention should be a matter of thorough investigations.
