\r\n\r\nA 16-year-old, 65 kg adolescent male is placed on peripheral veno-arterial (VA) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation via the left femoral artery and the right femoral vein due to acute fulminant myocarditis. Following five days of ECMO, a transthoracic echocardiogram demonstrates improved left ventricular function with an epinephrine infusion of 0.05 mcg\/kg\/min. Pulse oximetry on the right arm and right leg demonstrates oxygen saturations of 60% and 96% respectively. Non-invasive cerebral oximetry has decreased from 80 to 40 with a fractional inspired oxygen of 1.0 and a chest x-ray demonstrating appropriate endotracheal tube position.

\r\nA previously healthy four-year-old child undergoes surgical closure of a large secundum-type atrial septal defect (ASD). After separation from cardiopulmonary bypass and release of caval snares, the oxygen saturation (SpO2<\/sub>) decreases to 85% from 100% with a fractional inspired oxygen (FiO2<\/sub>) of 60% and normal peak inspiratory pressures. The FiO2 is increased to 100%, but the SpO2 remains at 85%. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) reveals an underfilled right atrium and right ventricle with normal systolic function and no tricuspid regurgitation. The left atrium and left ventricle are of normal size and function. An agitated saline study is performed through the right internal jugular central venous catheter and is negative.
