Materials and Methods Pediatric patients who required central ECMO support for ischemia-
reperfusion–associated myocardial dysfunction after cardiac surgical procedure were
eligible for mitochondrial autotransplantation. Patients were included if they had a
myocardial ischemic event after cardiac surgery that was not ameliorated by surgical
intervention and ECMO support. Patients were excluded if they underwent ECMO
cannulation through peripheral vessels (cervical or femoral), because access for myocardial …
