#42 ECMO
On this week’s episode of Critical Care Time, we sit down with two brilliant early-career ECMOlogists for an “intro-plus” to VV and VA ECMO. Not only do we cover the basics, but we couldn’t help ourselves and went on some deep dives along the way that you guys will hopefully find interesting! With the help of our good friends Nick Villalobos and Kha Dinh, we review indications for ECMO, approaches to configuration and management, touch on some of the complications and… even spend some time demystifying the European unit for girth! We hope you guys will have as much fun listening to this as we did producing it. If so, leave us a review and let us know what you think!
