Dr. Lorrel Brown covers evidence and indications for various modalities like IABP (intra-aortic balloon pump), ECMO (extracorporeal membrane oxygenation), and percutaneous VAD (ventricular assist device).

THANK YOU!! I'm a nurse, specializing to work in ICUs and emergency in Belgium, I've got exams coming up and I've been struggling with that existencial question about VAECMOs (how does the oxygenated blood actualy gets to the brain and such). No one even mentions it but you did and solved 'all' my problems. A million thanks!

[@MrBababuwi]

can you speak a little slower? ECMO isn't Bypass

[@oneMoroccanslife]

bypass the lung and heart, takes over the function of the heart and the lung.

[@KathleenEdge]

ECMO is partial bypass. She does speak too quickly.
