❗Why do seemingly healthy people in their 30s, 40s, and 50s suddenly fall sick—or worse, suffer cardiac arrests?
💡 Can we predict & prevent such events? YES!

Cannulation configuration & limb ischemia-related complications on peripheral VA #ECMO in adults, @ELSOOrg Registry analysis on @CritCareMed
➡️ bilateral cannulation should be preferred approach if femoral cannulation
🖇️ https://t.co/Su6n57b5I0
📊 > 19K patients, about 12k undergoing unilateral femoral cannulation, 7K bilateral
📊 no risk reduction for overall limb ischemia related events requiring DPC after 6h for any of 2 groups
📉 lower compartment syndrome/fasciotomy + lower cannulation site bleeding, vessel repair in-hospital mortality in bilateral group (confirmed after matching)

#ESICM guidelines for management of #ARDS 2023
Patients with severe ARDS to be treated in an ECMO Center.
#ECMO strongly recommended for treatment
It is not an issue of believers and non believers any more. #ECMO IS THE TREATMENT for SEVERE #ARDS
“three seven rule”: pH <7 and lactate >7 was associated with <7% survival
VA-ECMO should be considered with caution in patients with pH <7
The next time you get such a patient, would you refrain from #ECLS ?
Arterial pH at cannulation in VA #ECMO? Strong correlation between pH <7 & lactate >7 & reduced survival in this study. Survival possible even with extremely low pH, but rare: #ECLS should be considered with caution.

One more cardiac transplant recipient was discharged after postop recovery. We reiterate our continued strive for excellence in comprehensive management of heart failure, be it acute or end stage, there is hope for survival and better life.
We are proud of our very efficient clinician and leaders of the #ECMO team
Your eternal vigilance, prompt management, and never giveup attitude has saved lives of many patients.

Wonderful to see how well the little ones cooperate and enjoy if the process is made playful.
Blessed to have such efficient physiotherapists in our reahab team

The festive season begins with celebrations amidst ongoing #ECPR and #ECMO
Its never a holiday for any ECMO unit
Credit goes to the #ICU_Nurses
for all these decorations

🫀 Mortality in pts with cardiogenic shock receiving VA #ECMO: severity of shock prior to cannulation appears strong predictor of mortality in this population, & could be used as risk stratification tool to refine prognostication for #ECLS recipients.

Always feels good to talk to an aspiring audience
HOW TO START AN ECMO PROGRAM AND IMPROVE QUALITY
Prep talk for the clinicians, nurses, administrators
At SQUARE HOSPITAL Dhaka Bangladesh
ICU team is fabulous
Hope to see them start the ECMO program soon
