Abstract
There is limited data available to guide management of patients supported with veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO). An international cross-sectional survey of medical directors/program coordinators from Extracorporeal Life Support Organization centers was conducted. A hierarchical clustering on principle components was used. A total of 243 (55%) centers responded and were divided into three clusters: Cluster 1 (n = 102) had few high volumes and low specialized heart failure (HF) involvement; Cluster 2 (n = 75) had few high volumes and moderate HF involvement; Cluster 3 (n = 66) contained the majority of centers with >50 annual cases and high HF involvement. The most divergent responses were observed between Clusters 1 and 3 wherein Cluster 1 centers were less likely to change management based on pulse pressure (77% vs. 100%; p < 0.001) and would rather avoid inotropes to "rest the heart" (28%). Cluster 3 centers were more likely to perform daily echocardiograms (50% vs. 24%, p < 0.001), which were less likely to be exclusively performed by cardiologist (36% vs. 58%, p < 0.046) and base weaning on echocardiographic findings, when compared to Cluster 1 (3.97/5 vs. 3.56, p < 0.001). Responses were variable in management reflecting the lack of evidence for hemodynamic care for those supported with VA-ECMO.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
