Podcast 847: ECMO CPR

Podcast 847: ECMO CPR

Contributor: Aaron Lessen, MD

Educational Pearls:

  • Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) has been attempted as an adjunct to CPR during cardiac arrest but few studies on outcomes exist
  • One prior small study stopped early when it showed ECMO with CPR (ECPR) was significantly superior to CPR
  • Recent large, multicenter randomized control study in Netherlands evaluated neurologic outcomes in CPR versus ECPR
    • At 30 days and 6 months no significant difference between the groups was found
  • More studies are required determine if certain patients may benefit from ECPR
