Consultant Intensivist with ECMO & Cardiogenic shock interest. Can be found dreaming of climbing the highest mountains on skis. Probably in Chamonix 🎿⛷
I’m looking for a redundant ALS full size mannequin (with durable legs) for some ecmo sim. Would happily pay delivery charges or even collect if possible.
We are excited to announce our first educational meeting. Cardiogenic Shock in Scotland will be a one day educational event taking place at the Golden Jubilee Conference Centre on the 3rd of October 2025.
Is shock a contraindication to VV ECMO? 🤔
Happy to share this perspective commenting on the excellent work by @MazenOdish et al in @accpchest@journal_CHEST@CHESTCritCare with thanks to the editors

When supporting spontaneously ventilating pts on peripheral V-A ECMO, differential hypocapnia can occur due to RIDDLER syndrome (Relatively Increased CO2 Delivered to the brain from the Descending Aorta Leading to an Elevated Respiratory rate) https://t.co/WMXgIYeYVJ
◾️In memory of Prof L Gattinoni, towering figure in ICM, profoundly shaping understanding of #ARDS & #ECMO. The “father" of prone position revolutionized MV with a pioneering "baby lung” concept. His legacy will guide/inspire for generations to come.

Cold, crisp and a bit icy, but a good start to another day at #ParisRescue - great team of facilitators and brilliant team learning - delighted to be invited - a great resource for Europe, and the original ECPR course @LionelLamhaut@alice_hutin@BartsIntervGrp
Perioperative #ECMO in liver #transplantation?? Feasible & encouraging outcomes! Largest reported series including VV (mostly), VA & VAV @amjtransplant

🔍41.4% bridge to emergency #tx for acute liver failure or redo LT
🚨 13.3% intraoperative rescue VA #ECLS or #ECPR
🔎43.3% postoperative support
⚖️ 65.5% successfully weaned off, 51.7% survived to #ICU discharge
🫁 best results for VV, to be considered in select patients with refractory respiratory failure (if functioning graft)
🪦 poor outcome for intraop salvage, uncontrolled #sepsis, graft failure, bridge to emergency redo LT
