Skill Enhancement: Offer workshops, tutorials, and keynote sessions led by experts to enhance the skills and knowledge of participants, ensuring they stay abreast of the latest advancements in ECMO care. Promotion of Innovation: Showcase innovative technologies, methodologies, and solutions that have the potential to revolutionize of ECMO management. Encourage discussions on how these innovations can be implemented for the betterment of the industry. Networking Opportunities: Provide a platform for professionals, academics, and industry leaders to connect, share insights, and establish valuable collaborations that can contribute to the growth of the ECMO community.

Hypothermia in patients with cardiac arrest prior to VA #ECMO, post hoc analysis of HYPO-ECMO trial:
๐Ÿซ€ #ECLS may be considered in cardiogenic shock complicated by cardiac arrest
โ„๏ธ favourable effects of hypothermia are likely: moderate hypothermia appears to be associated with potential reduction in mortality in patients with cardiogenic shock on ECMO
