Abstract

Cardiology Drug products Oxygen
In infants with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), conventional treatment with inotropes, fluid restriction, and diuretics may be detrimental. This case reports an infant of a diabetic mother with HOCM on ECMO illustrating beneficial effects of beta adrenergic blockade and increased fluid administration.
