ECMO blood thinner showdown: which drug wins?
Disease control Recruiting nowThis study compares two blood thinners, bivalirudin and heparin, in 80 adults on ECMO (a heart-lung machine). The goal is to see which drug keeps blood thin enough to prevent clots and bleeding, and which is more cost-effective. Participants are randomly assigned to one of the tw…

Could 'lung rest' on ECMO save more lives in severe ARDS?
Disease control Recruiting nowThis Phase 3 trial tests whether giving the lungs a near-complete rest (apneic ventilation) early after starting ECMO helps people with the most severe form of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). About 280 participants will be randomly assigned to either near-apneic venti…

ECMO patients may get safer blood thinner in new trial
Disease control Recruiting nowThis study tests whether bivalirudin, a newer blood thinner, is safer and more effective than the standard drug heparin for patients on ECMO (a machine that helps the heart and lungs). The trial will enroll 154 adults on ECMO and track how many develop dangerous clots or bleeding…

Can a Heart-Lung machine save kids with septic shock?
Disease control Recruiting nowThis study tests whether a heart-lung bypass machine (ECMO) can help children with severe septic shock survive. Researchers will enroll 60 children and track how many leave the hospital alive. They also want to find the best time to start ECMO and which factors affect success.

Could skipping full blood thinners during ECMO save lives?
Disease control Recruiting nowThis study tests whether using only low-dose blood thinners (instead of the standard full-dose) is safe for patients on a life-support machine called ECMO for severe lung failure. The goal is to see if this approach reduces dangerous bleeding while still preventing clots. Forty a…

Heart rescue: can Power-Pack injections save kids on life support?
Disease control Recruiting nowThis study tests a new approach for children on ECMO life support who have heart damage. Doctors will take a small sample of the child's own mitochondria (the energy parts of cells) and inject them directly into the heart muscle. The goal is to see if this is safe and helps the h…

Mini lung machine tested on tiniest patients
Disease control Recruiting nowThis study is testing a small device called the MiniLung petite kit, which helps oxygenate blood and remove carbon dioxide in newborns and children weighing 2 to 8 kilograms who have severe breathing or heart failure. The device works with a console to temporarily take over the w…

New blood thinner could reduce clot risks in heart surgery recovery
Disease control Recruiting nowThis study compares a drug called nafamostat mesilate to the standard blood thinner heparin in 80 adults who need a heart-lung machine (ECMO) after heart surgery. The goal is to see which drug better prevents dangerous blood clots while causing fewer bleeding problems. Participan…

Portable MRI could spot brain injury in children on life support
Diagnosis Recruiting nowThis study tests whether a portable, low-field MRI machine can detect brain injuries in children who are on ECMO (a heart-lung bypass machine). The MRI is brought to the bedside, avoiding the need to move critically ill children. Researchers will scan children at several time poi…

New device could save limbs in sedated ECMO patients
Knowledge-focused Recruiting nowThis study tests a new device that continuously measures pressure in the leg to detect a dangerous condition called compartment syndrome in patients on ECMO. ECMO patients are often sedated and cannot report symptoms, making diagnosis difficult. The device may help doctors diagno…
