Proctor’s Playbook: VA-ECMO
CathMasters walk through the step-by-step procedural approach to VA-ECMO (veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation) cannulation. Building on the Data to Delivery episode, this Proctor Playbook episode covers pre-procedural planning, cannula selection, team composition and equipment, the role of the distal perfusion cannula (DPC), decision-making on mechanical left ventricular (LV) unloading, anticoagulation dosing and timing, the cannulation procedure itself, and vascular closure strategies during decannulation. The hypothetical case continues with the 36-year-old man with fulminant myocarditis, biventricular failure, and cardiogenic shock.
Audio editing for this episode was performed by CardioNerds Intern, Dr. Julia Marques Fernandes.
