RealTalk: CDH - Gentle Ventilation w/ Dr. Suneetha Desiraju
Our topic today is one that is near and dear to every CDH parent’s heart — innovation in CDH care, ventilation strategies, and reducing the need for ECMO. Dr Suneetha Desiraju joins us to explain the strategies she employs at Johns Hopkins Baltimore and the wonderful outcomes she is seeing.
If you’ve had a child on ECMO, then you know all too well the fear, the weight, and the heartbreak that can come with it. So any advancement that helps lessen the need for ECMO is something worth talking about.
