Restoring heart & lung health with ECMO Treatment at Yashoda hospitals

For patients with life-threatening heart and lung issues, ECMO is the best method that temporarily takes over the functions of these two essential organs in the body when other life support measures have failed.

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) helps replace the function of the lungs and heart when they are not able to function normally, even with medication or the assistance of a ventilator. This happens until the heart and lungs can be treated until they resume their normal function. In extracorporeal membrane oxygenation or ECMO support, blood is pumped outside of the body to a heart-lung machine that removes carbon dioxide and sends oxygen-filled blood back to tissues in the body. During the ECMO procedure, blood flows from the right side of the heart to the membrane oxygenator in a Heart-Lung machine, and then is rewarmed and sent back to the body. In the meanwhile the ECMO equipment will pump blood for the heart and will exchange oxygen for the lungs. The ECMO removes blood from the body and moves it through a pump which is then filtered through a membrane oxygenator that adds oxygen and removes carbon dioxide. A specialist doctor will place the cannula into a large vein and a large artery at the leg or neck.

At Yashoda hospitals, our services are available 24×7 with the combined expertise of research, clinical expertise, and patient care streamlined to deliver the best critical care services for a variety of heart & lung conditions. The multidisciplinary team of paramedics, nurses, emergency physicians, trauma experts, surgeons, and doctors from various specialties provides the best care & helps patients restore their lung & heart health through ECMO procedures.

Types of ECMO:

Veno-venous ECMO: People with lung failures are treated with venous-venous ECMO (VV-ECMO), which involves connecting one or more veins, usually close to the heart.

Veno-arterial ECMO: A VA-ECMO that connects to both a vein and an artery is used to treat patients with heart and lung failures.

How ECMO procedure works?

The procedure of ECMO involves the insertion of a cannula tube via the neck, chest, or groin regions into an artery or vein to draw the blood from your body. Secondly, these cannulas are connected to the ECMO machine, where it removes the carbon dioxide & sends oxygenated blood back to the body.

Outcomes without the procedure

If the patient does not have ECMO treatment, they may experience brain death due to lack of oxygen and can die if their heart and lungs do not work.
