Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation in adults: evidence and implications

Attempts at improving cardiac arrest outcomes have increasingly included extracorporeal techniques to re-establish circulation. In particular, the application of veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) during cardiac arrest is called extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR).

However, there is much debate about the impact of ECPR use on survival and neurological and functional recovery in adults suffering cardiac arrest.

These issues have been evaluated in a systematic review conducted by Dr Abrams et al.

Listen to the following podcast to hear more about which patients are most likely to benefit from EPCR, required resources and relevant ethic issues on using EPCR.
