Abstract Background Preliminary evidence from small, single-center studies suggests levosimendan may improve the likelihood of successful venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) weaning in patients with cardiogenic shock. However, the literature is limited and presents conflicting...
