I wrote this week's @nytmag cover story about ECPR - a new way of treating cardiac arrest. Currently cardiac arrest has dismal survival rates. ECPR could dramatically change that. But can health care systems implement this complex intervention? Should they?nytimes.com/2024/03/27/mag…

During the 2024 Annual Meeting #IARS24, Dr. Matthias Riess moderated the session “Hot Topics in Cardio‐Cerebral Resuscitation: From Adjunct Tools to eCPR." One of the session speakers, Dr. Matthew Barajas, reviewed the fundamental physiology of CPR. #VUMCHealth 🌟
