Podcast #400: ECMO

Author: Dylan Luyten, MD

Educational Pearls:

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is similar to bypass
ECMO is being utilized routinely at some centers and even prehospital in cardiac arrest
There are two general types of ECMO:
- Venovenous (VV-ECMO) is useful when the patient cannot oxygenate but has adequate heart function.
- Venoarterial (VA-ECMO) is more like typical bypass and can be used in a pulseless patient
