Fig 1.
Annual volume of ECMO coding in Germany / year.
Table 1.
Number of hospitals performing ECMO arranged in categories (mean annual ECMO volume over all 6 years) and total numbers of vvECMO and vaECMO per hospital category from 2010–2016.
Table 2.
Total ECMO treatments and mortality by hospital size from 2010 to2016.
Table 3.
Mortality (95% CI) for vvECMO and vaECMO.
Fig 2.
Mortality for patients is shown according to ECMO hospital size. The points connected by lines are taken from a logistic regression model adjusting for ECMO type, age and sex. A 61–70 year old, male vaECMO patient is depicted, but this choice does not affect the relative positions.
