Of 472 eligible patients seven were identified with severe DH. All patients had the drainage cannula tip in the IVC or at the junction between the IVC and right atrium.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n \n Results:<\/jats:italic>\n <\/jats:title>\n \n The mean peripheral capillary saturation increased from 54 (\u00b16.6) to 86 (\u00b16.6) %, (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n = <0.001) after repositioning of the cannula. Pre-oxygenator saturation increased from 62 (\u00b18.9) % prior to adjustment to 74 (\u00b13.7) %, (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.016) after repositioning. Plasma lactate tended to decrease within 24 h after adjustment. Five patients (71%) survived ECMO treatment, to discharge from hospital, and were alive at 1-year follow-up.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n \n Conclusion:<\/jats:italic>\n <\/jats:title>\n Although DH has been described in several studies, the condition has not been investigated in a clinical setting comparing the effect on upper body saturation before and after repositioning of the drainage cannula. This study shows that moving the drainage zone into the upper part of the body has a marked positive effect on upper body saturation in patients with DH.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/02676591221090667","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,5,11]],"date-time":"2022-05-11T07:08:37Z","timestamp":1652252917000},"page":"818-825","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":14,"title":["Differential hypoxemia and the clinical significance of venous drainage position during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"38","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1845-7418","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Lars","family":"Falk","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physiology and Pharmacology, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden"},{"name":"ECMO Centre Karolinska, Department of Pediatric Perioperative Medicine and Intensive Care, Karolinska University Hospital, Stockholm, Sweden"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jan","family":"Hultman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physiology and Pharmacology, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden"},{"name":"ECMO Centre Karolinska, Department of Pediatric Perioperative Medicine and Intensive Care, Karolinska University Hospital, Stockholm, Sweden"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4124-4581","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Lars M","family":"Broman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physiology and Pharmacology, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden"},{"name":"ECMO Centre Karolinska, Department of Pediatric Perioperative Medicine and Intensive Care, Karolinska University Hospital, Stockholm, Sweden"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,5,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_2_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1053\/j.semperi.2005.02.002"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4103\/1817-1737.114290"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/membranes11030188"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/02676591211020895"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0022-4804(74)90049-3"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1525-1594.1997.tb03743.x"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1164\/rccm.201710-2130CP"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0267659119830513"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1164\/rccm.2107138"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/eurheartj\/ehv194"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_12_2","unstructured":"Extracorporeal Life and Support Organization.
