Summary

Extracorporeal life support (ECLS), also known as extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), is an extracorporeal technique which provides respiratory and cardiac support to patients with respiratory and/or heart failure. Neonates account for a significant proportion of patients requiring ECLS support. While with unique pathophysiology among newborn infants, neonatal ECLS treatment faces different challenges (such as specific indications, anticoagulation, hemodynamic management, high incidences of complications, ect.) from those of elder children or adults. Though neonatal ECMO has been used in developed countries since 1970s, the introduction of neonatal ECMO in China was not reported until 2010s. While on the other hand, there has been a rapid increase of neonatal ECLS cases and centers in China in the past decade with a huge variation of numbers of cases and quality among different centers. Therefore, there is an urgent need to monitor the use and quality of neonatal ECLS in China. The goal of the Chinese Neonatal Extracorporeal Life Support Registry (Chi-NELS) is to maintain a registry of use of ECLS in active neonatal ECLS centers across China, to support quality improvement of neonatal ELCS, clinical research and regulatory agencies.
