Table 1 Comparison of mechanical circulatory support modalities
| Open/closed | Pump | Cannulation | Indications | Phase of transplant | |
| CPB | Open | Yes (Centrifugal or Roller) | Central (intrathoracic) | Hemodynamic instability | Intraoperative |
| Pulmonary hypertension | |||||
| Right ventricular failure | |||||
| En bloc double-LTx | |||||
| ECLS/iLA | Closed | No (Pump may be added) | Usually peripheral (also PA-LA) | Refractory: | Bridge to Tx (Awake) |
| Hypercarbia (PCO2 > 80 mmHg) | |||||
| VV-ECMO | Closed | Yes (Centrifugal or Roller) | Peripheral (BCDLC) | Refractory: | Bridge to Tx (Awake) |
| Hypoxia (PaO2:FiO2 < 80 mmHg) | Graft Salvage | ||||
| Hypercarbia PCO2 > 80 mmHg | |||||
| VA-ECMO | Closed | Yes (Centrifugal or Roller) | Peripheral (sometimes Central) | Hemodynamic instability | Bridge to Tx |
| Pulmonary hypertension | Intraoperative | ||||
| Right heart failure | Graft Salvage |
