ECMO in the PICU or peds cardiac ICU

Published

Just wondering....

Is ECMO done strictly in CVICU/pedsCVICU or can it be done in PICU? I am a PICU new grad RN who is absolutely fascinated by ECMO and hope that I will get to see it in action, and learn to take care of kids on it.

I know it all depends on the hospital, but I was just wondering if you all see ECMO in your PICUs

Specializes in Cardiac Surgery ICU.

sorry wrong place
