Does your cardiac arrest patient need ECMO?

Описание: Dr. Joe Bellezzo, is a self-described emergency room PIT doc from San Diego, but he is also a pioneer in the world of ECPR (extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation). In this talk he focuses on the critical factors that contribute to successful outcomes with eCPR. Drawing on his extensive experience in the field, Bellezzo emphasizes the importance of a procedural approach grounded in "Slow is Smooth, Smooth is Fast." He shares insights from his motorcycle hobby, likening the need for precision and control in resuscitation procedures to avoiding the pitfalls of "whiskey throttle" in motorcycling. Bellezzo also highlights the transformational power of a "Culture of Resuscitation Excellence," recounting how their ER's shift from nihilism to hope has significantly improved patient outcomes. Lastly, he introduces the concept of "Code Choreography," showcasing how efficient planning and execution can save valuable time in the life-saving process. Throughout the talk, Bellezzo weaves anecdotes, real-world examples, and practical advice, leaving viewers with a profound understanding of procedural excellence in critical care and emergency medicine.
