Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) has been extensively demonstrated as an effective means of bridge-to-destination in the treatment of patients with severe ventricular failure or cardiopulmonary failure. However, appropriate selection of candidates and management of patients during Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support remain challenging in clinical practice, due partly to insufficient understanding of the complex influences of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support on the native cardiovascular system. In addition, questions remain as to how central and peripheral venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation modalities differ with respect to their hemodynamic impact and effectiveness of compensatory oxygen supply to end-organs. In this work, we developed a computational model to quantitatively address the hemodynamic interaction between the extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and cardiovascular systems and associated gas transport. Model-based numerical simulations were performed for cardiovascular systems with severe cardiac or cardiopulmonary failure and supported by central or peripheral venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. Obtained results revealed that: 1) central and peripheral venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation modalities had a comparable capacity for elevating arterial blood pressure and delivering oxygenated blood to important organs/tissues, but induced differential changes of blood flow waveforms in some arteries; 2) increasing the rotation speed of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation pump (ω) could effectively improve arterial blood oxygenation, with the efficiency being especially high when ω was low and cardiopulmonary failure was severe; 3) blood oxygen indices (i.e., oxygen saturation and partial pressure) monitored at the right radial artery could be taken as surrogates for diagnosing potential hypoxemia in other arteries irrespective of the modality of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation; and 4) Left ventricular (LV) overloading could occur when ω was high, but the threshold of ω for inducing clinically significant left ventricular overloading depended strongly on the residual cardiac function. In summary, the study demonstrated the differential hemodynamic influences while comparable oxygen delivery performance of the central and peripheral venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation modalities in the management of patients with severe cardiac or cardiopulmonary failure and elucidated how the status of arterial blood oxygenation and severity of left ventricular overloading change in response to variations in ω. These model-based findings may serve as theoretical references for guiding the application of venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation or interpreting in vivo measurements in clinical practice. |
