Lung Transplantation in Respiratory Failure Patients

• Conditions: Respiratory Failure

• Registration Number: NCT00854165
• Lead Sponsor: National Taiwan University Hospital

Brief Summary

Survival after cadaveric lung transplantation in recipients depended on ventilation support prior to transplantation has been reported to have relative high surgical mortality and morbidity rate. The objectives of this study were to describe the short-term outcomes of bilateral sequential lung transplantation under extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support in a consecutive series of patients who depended on noninvasive and invasive ventilation support preoperatively .

Detailed Description

The one-year survival rate and postoperative pulmonary functional results will be reported in this study.
