In this episode, Alec Wilcox & I discuss ECPR eligibility & preparation. ECPR, or extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation, involves taking a patient in cardiac arrest, sucking blood from their venous system, oxygenating it externally, and then pumping it back into their arterial system. This procedure helps maintain blood circulation and oxygen delivery during cardiac arrest, serving as a bridge to further therapy.
