The system provides heart-lung bypass support using a pump to circulate blood through an artificial lung back into the bloodstream, providing enough oxygen to the patient, whilst allowing time for the lungs and heart to rest or heal during or after serious illness. ECMO is often used for babies, but can also be used for children and adults (\u003cem\u003eMedline Plus). \u003c\/em\u003eThe techniques for ECMO require professionals from multidisciplinary background to be involved in the procedure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBased on the authors’ wealth of clinical experience, this book is a practical guide to the use of ECMO in cardiac and respiratory critical care.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeginning with an overview of the process, indications and patient selection, equipment and preparation, the next selection provides step by step instruction on initiation and management of ECMO, from cannulation and anticoagulation, to monitoring, ventilation and surgical intervention.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe following section covers complications and troubleshooting, describing clinical scenarios and using algorithms and flowcharts to explain their management.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe final chapters discuss weaning and decannulation, and ancillary issues such as record keeping protocols, the ECMO cart and inventory, and out-of-hospital ECMO.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis third edition has been fully revised and updated to provide clinicians with the latest advances in the field.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41042136957025,"sku":"9789356962613","price":58.69,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_27998045.jpg?v=1753353854","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9789356962613-ecmo-practical-manual","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
