Excerpt

Cardiovascular involvement in influenza infection, mainly reported in observational small series [1], is thought to occur through the direct effect of the virus in the myocardium or through exacerbating preexisting cardiovascular disease [2]. Since severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) needing veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO) is a known complication of influenza infection even in young people, we specifically addressed cardiovascular involvement (by means of serial echocardiograms) in 22 consecutive patients with H1N1-related ARDS treated with VV-ECMO admitted to our ECMO referral center (January 2016–April 2018). …
