Spontaneous echo contrast (SEC)　= moyamoya echo

SEC on VA-ECMO resulted in an increased risk of intracardiac thrombus and stroke. Maintaining pulsatility while the patient is on ECMO may result in a decreased chance of developing SEC and stroke.


My Question
Maintaining pulsatility might lead to improve LV function and survival?
