In the next @STLOUISSHOCK presentation, #WashUCardiothoracic fellow Matthew Shill, MD, (@WashUSurgery) dives deep into a complicated case involving a patient with high-risk submassive pulmonary embolism whose life was saved by utilizing a thrombectomy procedure and ECMO.
@stlouisshock@WashUSurgery “The most important members of the ECMO team are our nurses,” says @KunalKotkarMD. The audience, filled with nurses & nurse leaders, are eager to learn from nurse leader Elaine Thomas-Horton, MSN, RN, & cardiac ICU/advanced heart care nurse Megan Hudock, MSN, RN (@BarnesJewish)
@stlouisshock@WashUSurgery Varun Puri, MD #WashUThoracic surgeon, described optimal approaches for tracheostomy procedures for patients on ECMO. “Early tracheostomy, conducted within eight to ten days, is associated with a shorter ICU stay in ECMO patients, except what we’ve seen in COVID ECMO cases."
@stlouisshock@WashUSurgery@AkiItohMD Thank you to session 2 panelists @KunalKotkarMD, Michael Scott Plisco, MD, Bethany Tellor Pennington, PharmD, BCPS, and Clare H. Ridley, MD, for sharing your presentations on severe acute respiratory distress @STLOUISSHOCK
