#ECMO candidacy decision-making @JonahRubinMD #ELSO2024
Perfect candidate for #ECLS?? 🚦will die without ECMO & 🚦will live meaningfully with ECMO (hard to say)... 3 possibilities for non-candidacy
🚧 disease process is irreversible, and patient cannot receive a #transplantation
🪦patient's critical illness is unsurvivable
🍂patient can survive, but not meaningfully

🚨VV ECMO candidacy decisions are not consistent!
They generally should be.
Just out in @journal_CHEST - the first output of the newly formed EC-YES international study group analyzing the quality of ECMO candidacy decision-making. 🧵 (1/7)

Excellent work by some of our wonderful fellows and attendings! @rtparadis @laveenamunshi @nialldferguson @efan75 #ECLS #ECMO #CriticalCare #ScopingReview
🫁 Liberation from VV #ECMO? Variable practices! Non-protocolized approach may lead to under-recognition of liberation readiness/unsafe attempts. Standardizing trials may allow decannulation with higher levels of #ECLS & reduced run duration. @accpchest
