Obesity associated with improved mortality of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for severe COVID-19 pneumonia
CONCLUSIONS: In patients receiving ECMO for severe COVID-19, neither obesity (BMI >30) nor morbid obesity (BMI >40) were associated with in-hospital mortality. These results are consistent with previous reports and held true after adjusting for age and comorbidities. Our data suggest further examination of the recommendations to withhold ECMO in patients who are obese.PMID:37229525 | DOI:10.1177/02676591231178896
