- Abstract
The article discusses research which investigated effectiveness of low-dose heparin in maintaining the activated clotting time (ACT) target during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support in adult patients. Topics explored include adverse effects associated with excess anticoagulation during ECMO, the recorded bleeding-induced mortality following treatment, and the clinical challenges related to anticoagulation standardization.
