When should an emergency clinician think about ECMO—and when should they make the call? In this episode, we break down the fundamentals of VA and VV ECMO, basic circuit physiology and cannulation, and the role of extracorporeal support in the emergency department. We take a deeper look at ECPR, including patient selection and the ARREST, Prague OHCA, and INCEPTION trials, before exploring ECMO in hypothermic arrest, massive pulmonary embolism, cardiotoxic poisoning, myocarditis, cardiogenic shock, severe respiratory failure, and other selected emergencies.
