Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is increasingly being deployed for selected patients in cardiac arrest who do not attain a native circulation with conventional CPR (ECPR). This ELSO guideline is intended to be a practical guide to implementing ECPR and the early management following establishment of ECMO support. Where a paucity of high-quality evidence exists, a consensus has been reached amongst the authors to provide guidance to the clinician. This guideline will be updated as further evidence in this field becomes available.
Introduction: Simulation-based learning and hands-on learning are popular in medicine, particularly in areas where life-saving manoeuvres and team skills are required. Simulations can be provided in different environments: directly in hospitals (in situ), in dedicated facilities (simulation rooms) or, on occasion, at scientific meetings, thus taking advantage of the delegates' motivation. Simulation-based learning in extracorporeal life support is also increasingly relevant due to the inherent features of the often difficult and emergent decision-making, approaches and management involved, as well as to the challenging multidisciplinary teamwork. Aim: Based on these premises and on the constant rise in interest in starting new extracorporeal life support programmes, the EuroELSO organization has, since the beginning of its scientific activities, established an 'ad hoc' space (Educational Corner) for training and hands-on sessions with a limited number of attendees per session during its annual congress. Methods: Experienced trainers deliver repeated dedicated sessions on fundamental aspects of extracorporeal life support management. After several years of sessions, a questionnaire was prepared and delivered to the attendees at the 8th annual congress in Barcelona. Results: More than 90% of the responders indicated that they would recommend the workshop to their colleagues and that they received useful information during the workshops. Over 85% of the responders (85-97%) indicated that the workshops met the set educational goals and objectives and indicated that the simulation sessions would have a positive impact on their daily practice. Conclusion: The Educational Corner during the EuroELSO Congress has achieved great popularity, as shown by the number of attendees participating each year, and presumably improves many technical and behavioural skills among the attendees.
