Neurological Injury in COVID-19 Patients Who Receive VV-ECMO Therapy: A Cohort Study
Both thrombotic and bleeding events have been implicated in the progression of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).1,2 Such dysregulation of coagulation has been associated with poor prognosis.3,4 Neurologic sequelae, such as ischemic stroke and intracranial hemorrhage (ICH), have been reported in COVID-19 patients at rates of 0.9%-2.3% and 0.9%, respectively.5,6,7,8 Limited data exists on neurological events in COVID-19 patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) who require extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) due to severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).
