ECPR
ECPR (extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation) and ECPR programs are on the rise. I set down with Jonathan Goldstone to hear about his hospital's long history with ED ECMO and their ECPR pilot program with San Diego County to address OHCA (Out of Hospital Cardiac Arrest). Jonathan is an ECMO Coordinator and Lead ECMO Specialist. In this clip he shares about working with and educating multiple EMS agencies, as well the algorithm used in the field.

Safe Patient Handling
Communication and Defined Roles are Key during ECMO Mobilization. Here’s why… 1️⃣ Enhanced Safety Protocols: Patient well-being is paramount during ECMO mobilization. Effective communication and clearly defined roles establish a robust safety net. Team members, aware of their responsibilities, contribute to a structured, secure environment, minimizing the risk of errors and prioritizing the safety of the patient above all. 2️⃣ Collaborative Expertise: ECMO mobilization demands a variety of skills. When team members know their roles, it fosters a collaborative environment where each person contributes their expertise. This synergy results in a comprehensive approach to patient care, improving overall outcomes. Effective communication and defined roles aren't just crucial; they're the backbone of successful ECMO patient mobilization. Want to learn more about ECMO Collaborative Care and Mobilization?

The effects of high-fidelity simulation education
The effects of high-fidelity simulation education on anxiety and confidence should not be under estimated... A 2021 study confirmed that medical students need to be repeatedly exposed to simulation education experiences in order to have a sense of psychological stability and perform with confidence in a clinical setting. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8118241/ The same could be said of just about any clinician, especially when there may be gaps between occasions when specialized knowledge and skills are utilized.
