Fig 5 Risk stratification of complications that occurred during interhospital extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) transport. Further developed based on Ericsson and colleagues [15], a lower risk category indicates a more severe complication. (iv = intravenous; VA = venoarterial; VV = venovenous.)
