Causes of red blood cell loss during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.

RLI (ml/L/h) is a more reliable quantitative indicator of RBC loss than transfusion rate (ml/kg) for pediatric patients on ECMO. Phlebotomy and intravascular hemolysis only account for 40% of RBC loss in non-bleeding ECMO patients. High REV generation suggests sublethal damage and extravascular clearance may be a cause of RBC loss on ECMO.
