Abstract

BACKGROUND: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is resource intensive with high mortality. Identifying trauma patients most likely to derive a survival benefit remains elusive despite current ECMO guidelines. Our objective was to identify unique patient risk profiles using the largest database of trauma patients available.
