91 – Stay and Play to Shock, Shock, Go!!

Should we keep cardiac arrest patients on the scene when we have the ability to put them on ECMO in the hospital?  That is the question we tackle this month on EDECMO.  Brian Grunau and the great crew from Prague published a study looking at the Hyperinvasive trial data.  They make some profound observations about the benefits of ECPR and some data supporting transporting patients early in functional ECPR systems. Saul Levine and Jonathan Goldstone from the SDRC join the podcast this month to give their insight into the formation of ECPR receiving centers as well as the paper.   Grunau’s Paper   The time-dependent yield of invasive vs. standard resuscitation strategies: A secondary analysis of the Prague out-of-hospital cardiac arrest study Grunau, Brian et al.
