ECMO - Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation

ECMO (or extra-corporeal membrane oxygenation) is a life-support function offered to patients with forms of heart and lung failure; the technique involves oxygenating blood outside of the body. 

ECMO is a highly specialised technique, which needs the input of intensive care specialists, cardiothoracic surgeons as well as ECMO-trained nurses and perfusion scientists.

Royal Papworth hospital provides the ECMO service to patients in Cambridgeshire, Norfolk, Suffolk, Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire, Essex and North East London. To find out more about ECMO; please use the reference link below
