HEROES V-A: HEmoRrhagic cOmplications in veno-arterial Extracorporeal life Support: Development and internal validation of a multivariable prediction model in adult patients.

The model is based on the largest cohort of V-A ECLS patients and is the best available predictive model for bleeding events given the predictors that are available in V-A ECLS compared to current literature. The model can help in identifying patients at high risk for bleeding complications and will help in developing further research and decision-making in terms of anticoagulation management. External validation is warranted to extrapolate this model in the clinical setting.
