Past Medical History (PMHx)

oMr. Shock is a 44 year old male with PMHx significant for:o Sleep apnea (02/2017)o Nonischemic cardiomyopathy (NICMO)o Chronic systolic CHF (congestive heart failure)o Atrial flutter s/p CTI ablation (01/2008) on Pradaxao Dual chamber pacemaker/defibrillator (10/2004)o Chronic kidney diseaseo Diabetes mellitus type 2o Dyslipidemia o Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)o Peripheral artery disease.

oMobility limited by DOE. Ambulates short distances without DME.

History of Present Illness (HPI)

oHe presented to the outpatient heart failure clinic on 10/16/17 with heart failure exacerbation, complaining of dyspnea on exertion, orthopnea, loss of appetite,  and weight gain of 20 lbs. despite adherence to diuretics.  

oHe was admitted directly from the heart failure clinic to the cardiac telemetry floor on 10/16 for close monitoring and medical optimization.

Pertinent Imaging

oECHO on 10/17 revealed severe LV dilation, LA dilation, moderate mitral regurgitation. Ejection fraction of 30%. Severe RV dilation with reduced RV systolic function. PA pressures moderately elevated, with mean of 28 mmHg. Moderate tricuspid regurgitation and moderately dilated RA.

oCXR on 10/17 showed bilateral pulmonary infiltrates consistent with pulmonary edema. Mild blunting of costophrenic angles, evidence of mild pleural effusion. Cardiomegaly.

Facilitate procedures (i.e. bronchoscopy) 

Non‐invasive and Invasive PPV

Increased work of breathing

•Reduce work of breathing 

•Prevent muscle fatigue or speed muscle recovery

Poor gas exchange

•Allow adequate alveolar ventilation (PEEP)

Assist in correction of hypoxemia (FiO2)

•Allow higher concentration of oxygen delivery

•Reduce shunting by maintaining open alveoli

Background: Physical therapy involvement

o Femoral insertion site:

o Bed mobility, strengthening/ROM of extremities without IABP

o NO standing upright. NO Ambulation.

o Hospital specific guidelines on hip flexion restrictions. 

o <30 degrees 

Proposed Guidelines for Safe Ambulation of Patients with Femoral IABP in Cardiac Care Unit

Order to ambulate must be approved by the provider on service in the CCUPerfusion must be notified if ambulating patient with femoral IABP

IABP must be sutured to the leg at insertion site and secured distally

Patient must currently be chest pain free

Patient must have on non-skid socks

Saturations by pulse oximetry measuring 92% or greater at resting

Patient demonstrates ability to stand and weight bear with adequate BLE strength with or without an assistive device

Physical therapist must be present to ambulate patient and must have tilt table to facilitate standing of patient while avoiding flexion of hips

Patient must be returned to bed immediately if:

Becomes orthostatic/nauseated

IABP becomes dislodged or insertion site starts to bleed

Complains of chest pain

Hypotensive blood pressure response to activity or heart rhythm changes that lead to hemodynamic instability

Signs of ischemia/evidence of migration of IABPRepeat CXR after ambulation if concerned that IABP is still in adequate position

If concern about IABP functioning physician/surgeon must be notified immediately

Inspect/Secure The Cannulation Site

Circuit Assessment 

o Ensure circuit is free of anything lying on or interfering with flow

oNo Tangles! Try to prevent them before they occur! 

oLines off the floor → DANGEROUS!

oGas Hoses → Yellow & Green → Ensure Patency

o Prevent kinking 

o Blender will alarm

oQuadrox Oxygenator should be perpendicular to foot board

oSorin Pump Head should be below cannulation site

Clinical Questions On The Horizono Can ECMO parameters be adjusted during mobilization activity to optimize 

participation with therapy (i.e. sweep, flow, FiO2)?

o Ability/Role of PT in the titration of ECMO support with therapy? 

o Role of PT in candidacy for decannulation?

o Implications of participation with mobilization for vascular repair at time of decannulation?
