NCT ID NCT05154071
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study examined whether having a dedicated center for veno-venous ECMO (a machine that helps the lungs) reduces death rates. Researchers reviewed records of 172 adult patients treated in Dijon, France, over 10 years. The goal was to see if a structured care system lowers mortality compared to standard care.
