Purpose: The aim of the study was to evaluate the value of lung ultrasound (LUS) in patients with cardiogenic shock treated by venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO). Methods: A retrospective study was conducted in Xuzhou Central Hospital from September 2015 to April 2022. Patients with cardiogenic shock who received VA-ECMO treatment were enrolled in this study. The LUS score was obtained at the different time points of ECMO. Results: Twenty-two patients were divided into a survival group (n = 16) and a nonsurvival group (n = 6). The intensive care unit (ICU) mortality was 27.3% (6/22). The LUS scores in the nonsurvival group were significantly higher than those in the survival group after 72 h (P < 0.05). There was a significant negative correlation between LUS scores and PaO2/FiO2 and LUS scores and pulmonary dynamic compliance(Cdyn) after 72 h of ECMO treatment (P < 0.001). ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the ROC curve (AUC) of T72-LUS was 0.964 (95% CI 0.887 ~ 1.000, P < 0.01). Conclusion: LUS is a promising tool for evaluating pulmonary changes in patients with cardiogenic shock undergoing VA-ECMO. Trial registration: The study had been registered in the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry(NO.ChiCTR2200062130 and 24/07/2022).
