ECMO in Perioperative Cardiac Arrest: A Game Changer?
In this episode of the NYSORA Podcast, Dr. Hadzic dives into a groundbreaking study by Kapoor et al. (Anesthesiology, 2025) on extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) for perioperative cardiac arrest. The study reveals impressive survival rates (57.6%) and excellent neurologic outcomes (89.5%) with ECMO use in carefully selected patients. Learn how early ECMO activation, shorter CPR times, and metabolic markers can improve outcomes—and what this means for anesthesiologists and critical care teams.Tune in for key takeaways, practical recommendations, and a glimpse into the future of perioperative resuscitation!
