The Role of Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Simulation Training at Extracorporeal Life Support Organization Centers in the United States

Abstract: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation simulation is growing but remains in its infancy. Centers with access to a simulation center, higher caseloads, and pediatric cardiothoracic intensive care units are more likely to have ECMO simulation programs. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation simulation is felt to be beneficial, and further work is needed to delineate best training practices for ECMO providers.

“…This may encourage learners to pretend to do a full circuit check, ignore observed abnormalities, and become familiar with such abnormal circuit configurations. Such alterations with the addition of additional ports or extensions into the ECMO circuit are usually required to assist with volume adjustments, injection of air bubbles, (24) or even oxygenation levels when animal or expired human blood is used as part of the simulation.…”

“…(24) Deliberate and repetitive practice of ECMO related skills is critical to patient safety and is expected to improve outcomes, especially when it is employed in an interprofessional simulation context (enhanced by debriefing). For example, SBE had been demonstrated to reduce ECPR times in real patients.…”

“…Its complex management and the need for rapid decision-making processes to counter complications require critical care stakeholders to be constantly updated and trained to care for patients in need of such interventions. Despite the highly challenging management of ECMO patients, well-established training programs are scarce (7,8). To date, the Extracorporeal Life Support Organization, an international body focused on ECMO research and education, recommends traditional educational approaches with lectures and practice with water-drills or animal testing (9).…”
