- Abstract
Objective: to identify the complications associated with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in adults, as described in the literature. Methods: An integrative review including articles published from 2011 to 2016, in Portuguese, English or Spanish, using standardized terms (MeSH and CINAHL titles) in the Medline and CINAHL databases. The complete titles, abstracts and texts of the articles meeting eligibility criteria were read and classified, based on the level of evidence. The complications of ECMO were grouped into: hemorrhagic, infectious, renal, vascular, mechanical, neurological, and other. Results: Six hundred sixty-six studies were found, of which 45 were included. The main complications identified were: hemorrhagic, in 747 individuals (21.23%), followed by infectious (10.85%), renal (9.18%), vascular (5.99%), mechanical (15%), and neurological (3.8%). Conclusion: The main complications of ECMO in adult patients were identified. The knowledge about them supports planning of care, avoiding complications and, thus, reducing morbidity and mortality, costs, and length of hospitalization.
