The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) awarded a Project Grant under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) federal grant program to The Johns Hopkins University. The $245,625 award, which runs from August 7, 2024 to June 30, 2026, will fund the "DELTA ECMO ABI STUDY" to investigate the causes of acute brain injury in patients receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) therapy. The research aims to determine if rapid changes in carbon dioxide levels during ECMO initiation contribute to brain injury and impact long-term neuropsychiatric outcomes. The study will utilize portable MRI imaging and biomarker analysis to diagnose acute brain injury, with the goal of advancing understanding of this complication and informing future approaches to mitigate it during ECMO treatment.
