Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Main Objective: Our objective is to study if reduced anticoagulation targets diminish bleeding complications without an increase in thromboembolic complications or a negative impact on outcome.;Secondary Objective: Not applicable;Primary end point(s): The primary outcome parameter is a combined endpoint consisting of: 1) major bleeding including hemorrhagic stroke according to the ELSO definitions; 2) severe thromboembolic complication defined as ischemic stroke, limb ischemia (not related with distal perfusion catheter), or acute pump failure with emergency exchange; 3) mortality at 6 months.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 6 month
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Secondary end point(s): Secondary outcome parameters are: 1) blood transfusions; 2) health related quality of life (HR-QoL) at 6 months; 3) exchange of the membrane oxygenator; 4) vessel thrombosis after ECMO removal detected by echography; 5) pulmonary embolism; 6) costs; 7) the individual components of the composite outcome; and 8) all thromboembolic complications combined.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 6 months
