Background: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support for tissue oxygenation can improve the survival of patients with life-threatening respiratory distress syndrome or cardiac failure. Current Concepts: Recently, the use of ECMO in acute respiratory distress syndrome has first been reported by a multicenter randomized controlled trial, known as the conventional ventilation or ECMO for severe adult respiratory failure trial. The ECMO application is dramatically increasing with the increasing number of patients experiencing acute respiratory failure due to coronavirus disease 2019 pneumonia. In this review, we explain the indications of the ECMO application and ECMO-associated complications. Discussion and Conclusion: The ECMO application in lung diseases, such as coronavirus disease 2019 and acute respiratory distress syndrome, has significant outcomes in securing the treatment periods and reducing mortality. Therefore, accumulating knowledge and experience in the ECMO application can produce positive outcomes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
