ECMO Bedside Guide

The ECMO Bedside Guide from the Extracorporeal Life Support Organization (ELSO) is your essential guide for managing patients receiving Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO). This comprehensive app provides critical care professionals with quick access to critical information and resources at the bedside.

• Perform important calculations using our series of built-in calculators for BSA, flows, oxygenation, unit conversions, and more!
• Follow detailed checklists for various ECMO procedures from ECMO management to troubleshooting.
• Find accurate dosing guidance for commonly used medications in an ECMO setting.
• Assess adults and children for ECMO candidacy with our user-friendly guides.
• Identify Favorites so you can come back to your most used features time and time again.

The app also includes valuable information on ECMO equipment, such as cannulas, pumps, membrane lungs, and temperature regulation power units. In urgent situations, there’s even a “PANIC!” button to provide you with emergency guidance for critical situations.

Beyond calculators and checklists, the ECMO Bedside Guide features a dedicated Notes section. Just like the native note-taking app on your phone, you can easily record important information and track changes in patient status.

Designed for your convenience and patient privacy, the ECMO Bedside Guide can be used anytime, anywhere, even without wifi. ELSO is committed to protecting patient confidentiality and the app does not store any patient identifying information (PII).
