University of Michigan ECMO program

The University of Michigan ECMO program specializes in providing extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), a life-support technique used for patients with severe but potentially reversible heart or lung failure. The program offers expert care, utilizing advanced technology to circulate and oxygenate blood outside the body, giving the heart and lungs a chance to recover. It involves a multidisciplinary team working closely to assess, initiate, and monitor ECMO therapy. The program is focused on delivering high-quality, individualized care to critically ill patients, aiming to improve survival rates and functional outcomes in complex cases.
