Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and cerebral blood flow velocity in newborn infants.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND METHODS:Calcium-channel blockers may attenuate vasospasm after transient ischemia and improve organ blood flow after resuscitation. Our aim was to assess the effect of diltiazem on systemic oxygen delivery and consumption, hemodynamics, electroencephalogram (EEG), and organ blood flow after restoration o...
