ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

Cardiac arrest is associated with high mortality rates and severe neurological impairments. One of the underlying mechanisms is global ischemia-reperfusion injury of the body, particularly the brain. Strategies to mitigate this may thus improve favorable neurological outcomes. The use of extracorporeal cardiopulmonary membrane oxygenation (ECMO) during CA has been shown to improve survival, but available systems are vastly unable to deliver goal-oriented resuscitation to control patient's individual physical and chemical needs during reperfusion. Recently, controlled automated reperfusion of the whoLe body (CARL), a pulsatile ECMO with arterial blood-gas analysis, has been introduced to deliver goal-directed reperfusion therapy during the post-arrest phase.

METHODS:

This review focuses on the device profile and use of CARL. Specifically, we reviewed the published literature to summarize data regarding its technical features and potential benefits in ECPR.

RESULTS:

Peri-arrest, mitigating severe IRI with ECMO, might be the next step toward augmenting survival rates and neurological recovery. To this end, CARL is a promising extracorporeal oxygenation device that improves the early reperfusion phase after resuscitation.
