This review summarizes the extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) or extracorporeal life support literature published in 2021.

The primary topics presented include the following: ECMO for coronavirus disease 2019, extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation, periprocedural cardiopulmonary support with ECMO, and anticoagulation for ECMO.
