Скачать или смотреть Indications of ECMO in ARDS: VV ECMO Strategies Explained (2-site, Dual Lumen, VPA)

This video provides a practical and evidence-based overview of when to use Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) in patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). The session thoroughly explains current clinical indications and contraindications for ECMO—drawing on established international guidelines and major randomized trials (including EOLIA and CESAR)—and reviews the impact of advanced medical management strategies such as prone positioning, optimized ventilation, and timing.

The video goes in-depth on key VV ECMO (Venovenous ECMO) cannulation options:
Two-site (e.g. femoral-jugular, femoral-femoral)
Dual-lumen single-site internal jugular cannulation

VPA (Veno-pulmonary arterial) and related methods
Detailed pros, cons, placement strategies, and troubleshooting (including recirculation and blood flow optimization) are discussed to help guide bedside decision-making.

Viewers will learn:

How to recognize severe ARDS candidates for ECMO
Evidence-based criteria and timing for VV ECMO initiation
Surgical and bedside approaches to cannulation
How cannulation strategies impact patient mobility, flows, and outcomes
Practical troubleshooting tips (recirculation, flow, access problems)
When to consider each configuration for safest and most effective support

Targeted at critical care teams, fellows, nurses, and anyone interested in ARDS management, this content is based on up-to-date, international best practice—presented in a straightforward, clinical format with no promotional content or personal details.
