Couldn't agree more. And the prescription has to be dynamic, changing as the patient's condition changes. And almost assuredly the specialized nutrition care must continue beyond the ICU (and likely even beyond the hospital).
Intro to ECMO for New ICU Staff - INTENSIVE
Fantastic short animated videos for ECMO newbies by Ken Hoffman. The 4 videos cover ecmo components and nomenclature, V-V ECMO, V-A ECMO, and ECPR https://t.co/lOrX5TKw8w

@laurenhannaPhD@PhillJohnstonRD@KellieOwen_RD Agree! We have just had our first dietitian trained for extended scope of practice to insert tubes and bridles for patients in our ICU. Only positives with this initiative so far!
