It was a privilege to be part of #EuroELSO2024 and to win the cannualtion cup with an amazing team, following the rhythm of the Macarena, sharing amazing sessions, simulations & discussions with colleagues from all over...My compliments to the organizers for their huge success

The #ECLS team & the organ procurement team of the @AUSLRomagna at #EuroELSO2024 with 2 posters! 🎨 #extracorporeal support in #DCD donors: design & implementation of a pilot education & training course on normothermic regional perfusion #NRP 🎨 managing accidental decannulation during NRP Interested?? Consider reading special issue of Perfusion Journal with all conference manuscripts & abstracts + scan QR code to download full posters

See you there!

What is your IMV strategy pre VV #ECMO? HIgh frequency percussive ventilation is not commonly used. Or is it? It may be an effective bridging strategy, and even avoiding #VVECMO. heartandlung.org/article/S0147-… @ELSOOrg @EuroELSO @asaiojournal @WeillCornell @WCM_CTSurgery @nyphospital

Minnesota ECPR study: Age impacts outcomes! In 391 patients from Dec 2015 to Feb 2023, older patients had lower survival rates. Each 10-year increase in age decreased survival by 30%. Caution is advised in selecting age criteria for #ECPR. shorturl.at/hjw04

Thank you @jan_belohlavek and @DYannopoulos for the opportunity to share our #ECPR experience at the #ECPRPragueSchool ! It’s fascinating to see other teams around the world are moving to #prehospitalECPR

🫀LV unloading on VA #ECMO in cardiogenic shock?? EARLY-UNLOAD RCT: early (within 12 h) routine LV unloading with transseptal left atrial cannulation did not reduce mortality vs conventional strategy (rescue LA cannulation if ⬆️ LV afterload) @CircAHA 🖇️bit.ly/46QK6Oe

Marcel van de Poll explaining the differences between ARREST, Prague OHCA and INCEPTION trials on ECPR

@HawkmoonHEMS @Resus_Plus Is of limited value. There are no not two things that can improve survival : defibrillations early and good quality CPR. Both can be delivered enroute. Training is required and extensive restructuring but observation data do not address this. Only tell about the current system

Do NOT miss @ELSOOrg neonatal & pediatric #ECMO virtual training course: 🖥 self-paced course (25 recorded online lectures) to allow practitioners to develop, strengthen, refine clinical skills related to ECMO care and improve confidence in working with children on an ECMO circuit. 🖥 live case study series + Q&A session with select members of the course faculty, moderated by Giles Peek on November 6, 2023 🔗 bit.ly/ELSOAcademy Completion of the course will comply with Step 1 requirements for the ELSO - Neonatal & Pediatrics ECMO Certification Exam (E-NPEC), designed to reflect a global standard in foundational ECMO education for neonatal & pediatric practitioners! 🎯 Target audience: the entire #ECLS team! physicians, nurses, perfusionists, respiratory therapists... CME: Available upon completion. 📬 Need additional information? email ecmotraining@elso.org

How to approach cardiac arrest at best? Think at the whole pathway: it is not cCPR vs ECPR... How to save the brain? Understand the relative contribution of all the steps of the pathway. Implementing #ECMO program to manage CA, to be considered: 🔮 impact of age, low/no-flow times/presenting rhythm on outcome 🩸potential complications of cCPR/ECPR ie bleeding 🩸extra-cerebral complications of prolonged no-flow time, impacting on recovery ie bowel ischemia costs 🫀ancillary interventions adding complexity, difficulties, time & costs 🧠 neuorooutcome 🏥 impact of survival duration 🔥impact of high mortality on caring team: of to care for them?
