Welcome to the Flow Control Podcast! We're your hosts, Chelsea and Shannon, and we're two passionate people. We are excited to bring you along for a journey of exploring the ECMO (extracorporeal membrane oxygenation) corner of the healthcare world from our perspective. We'll be bringing on guests to hear about their paths to finding ECMO as well as episodes diving into topics within ECMO. Shannon is an experienced ECMO educator and Chelsea's scientific, but non-clinical background work well to make this friendly to a wide range of experience listeners may have.
Shannon, Andrea, and Chelsea discuss the criteria and process for ECPR in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients. We have a staff question and a new segment that we think will make our listeners chuckle.
