Patients were categorized by one of four ECMO pump types, and hemolysis was assessed using lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and plasma-free hemoglobin (pfHb) as primary markers. Multivariable linear mixed-effects models were used to analyze associations between pump type and hemolysis, adjusting for several covariates including revolutions per minute (RPM), hematologic indices, ECMO mode, and severity scores.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Partial thromboplastin time (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">p<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt; 0.005), hemoglobin (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">p<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt; 0.001), and use of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT,\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">p<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt; 0.001) were positively correlated with both LDH and pfHb concentrations and hemolysis, while fibrinogen (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">p<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt; 0.03) was inversely correlated. Without RPM adjustment, NovaLung exhibited the highest LDH (680.3 U\/L) and pfHb (29.4\u00a0mg\/dL), followed by the Cardiohelp, Rotaflow, and CentriMag. In the RPM-adjusted analysis, LDH was highest in Cardiohelp (737.4 U\/L), followed by the Rotaflow, CentriMag, and NovaLung; whereas pfHb was highest in Cardiohelp (25.8\u00a0mg\/dL), followed by the Rotaflow, NovaLung, and CentriMag.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study provides a clinical associations of the safety and performance of four centrifugal pumps in real-world ECMO practice in adults. We demonstrate that pump-specific RPM may be potentially correlated with hemolysis during ECMO in clinical practice, illustrating that the diagonal pump, which operated at the highest RPMs, was associated with the highest hemolysis in models without the RPM adjustment. Future studies are warranted to further clarify the impact of hemolysis on outcomes.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/02676591261499223","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,10,23]],"date-time":"2026-10-23T18:06:51Z","timestamp":1792778811000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Comparing hemolysis among extracorporeal pumps: A large-scale retrospective study"],"prefix":"10.1177","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0003-7084-8576","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Linda E.","family":"Sousse","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute for Extracorporeal Life Support"},{"name":"University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Junya","family":"Hagiwara","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute for Extracorporeal Life Support"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Qianqian","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Texas Health Science Center"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Timothy M.","family":"Maul","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Nemours Children\u2019s Health"},{"name":"University of Pittsburgh"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Joel E.","family":"Michalek","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Texas Health Science Center"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jeffrey D.","family":"DellaVolpe","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute for Extracorporeal Life Support"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,10,23]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_4_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(20)31047-3"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1164\/rccm.201404-0736CI"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1053\/j.sempedsurg.2014.11.002"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.medntd.2022.100153"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/PCC.0b013e318292dd10"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3389\/fphys.2021.699891"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1441-2772(23)01792-1"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s12265-021-10195-9"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0227793"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s13054-021-03676-5"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/aor.12979"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_13_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3389\/fimmu.2022.831930"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_14_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/CCM.0000000000000128"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_15_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.7150\/ijms.50217"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_16_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0143527"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_17_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s40560-023-00664-5"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_18_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1051\/ject\/202153125"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_19_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0124034"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_20_2","volume-title":"Biochemistry, lactate dehydrogenase.
