Myriad surgical and medical remedies including Extracorporeal Membrane\nOxygenation (ECMO) are being employed for acute right ventricle with varying\nresults. Very few cases have been documented in literature regarding the\nrole of VA ECMO for right ventricular failure after open heart surgery. We\nretrospectively analyzed all cases eliciting VA ECMO for post-operative right\nheart failure over a period of 24 months. Data was completely delineated for\ndemography, pre-operative patient status at length, brief venipuncture course,\nindications for VA ECMO and its outcome after institution.
