ECPR and Resuscitative ECMO

Emergent deployment of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has revolutionized the world of resuscitation. Historically, survival from refractory cardiac arrest was dismal, but now extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) can be used to provide a bridge to return of spontaneous circulation. Effective incorporation of resuscitative ECMO requires a novel procedural skillset, swift operational organization and interprofessional team collaboration. This book, written by experts in the field, serves as a practical guide for implementing resuscitative ECMO.

Neonatal and Pediatric ECMO Simulation Scenarios - Prepared Jointly by ELSO and IPSS

Simulation has revolutionized the training of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) teams. Building upon knowledge obtained through reading or didactic sessions and technical skills acquired through water drills, interprofessional simulation sessions provide an opportunity to review and refine care of this patient population in a risk-free environment. This new book, created jointly by simulation experts from the Extracorporeal Life Support Organization (ELSO) and the International Pediatric Simulation Society (IPSS), provides over 75 simulation scenarios addressing ECMO challenges in neonatal, pediatric, and cardiac patients. This is an exciting resource that no pediatric ECMO team should be without!
