Abstract：In patients with cardiogenic shock(CS),extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO)can help maintain adequate oxygenation and blood flow in the event of heart failure,providing biventricular support.Timely assessment of cardiac function and identification of secondary heart failure risk factors are crucial for making informed interventions.Echocardiography,a commonly used tool for cardiac function evaluation,has been employed even before ECMO initiation in these patients.However,the impact of echocardiographic findings on the successful weaning of ECMO in this patient population remains under investigation.This review aims to comprehensively discuss the current applications and research progress of echocardiography in CS patients receiving ECMO.
