  1. Data are presented as median (interquartile range, Q1-Q3) or number of patients (%). Denominator of the percentage is the total number of subjects in the group. Clinical and laboratory parameters from individual ECMO patients were gathered from the electronic patient data management system closest to the time point of blood sampling. Therefore, they reflect the clinical situation at the time of blood sampling. Transfusions indicates the number of patients that received transfusions on the day before blood taking (only red blood cell transfusions were given). During the time on ECMO nearly all patients required transfusions. The bleeding complications presented occurred during the total time while patients were on ECMO and not at the time of blood sampling. Days on ECMO only reflect the first 60 hours of ECMO therapy during which blood was sampled.
