The effect of ECMO on INTEM, HEPTEM and EXTEM parameters. INTEM and HEPTEM-MCF a and b in the S-ALI controls and S-ALI + ECMO groups was significantly lower than in healthy controls. c EXTEM-CFT was prolonged in both S-ALI controls and S-ALI + ECMO. d EXTEM-MCF was subsequently lower in both S-ALI controls and S-ALI + ECMO. Data are presented as mean ± SEM. *P < 0.05, ***P < 0.001 versus healthy controls. n = 4 healthy controls, n = 8 ECMO controls, n = 7 S-ALI controls, n = 8 S-ALI + ECMO. B Baseline, CFT Clot formation time, ECMO Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, MCF Maximum clot firmness, S-ALI Smoke-induced acute lung injury
