Apparent interference with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation by liposomal amphotericin B in a patient with disseminated blastomycosis receiving continuous renal replacement therapy.

CONCLUSION: In our case we believe that liposomal amphotericin B was significantly removed by ECMO and was responsible for the failure of the ECMO circuit. We would suggest amphotericin B deoxycholate be used in such patients preferentially and that serum levels of the drug be assessed when possible. PMID: 30994894 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
