Abstract
The use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for lung transplant patients with respiratory failure has become routine part of ICU therapy. This chapter reviews indications, complications and outcomes.
Ex-vivo lung perfusion for donor lungs is a successful strategy to identify suitable donor organs.
