La Pitié ECMO team is delighted to invite you to the first Paris-ECMO simulation course.

GENERAL INFORMATION

GENERAL INFORMATION

Two and half days entirely dedicated to practical VA and VV ECMO management, with numerous simulation sessions, practical hands-on, and discussion of concrete cases at the ICU bedside.

This course is restricted to a maximum of 12 attendees to promote maximal interaction, feedback, and discussion in a friendly atmosphere.

Who should attend?
The entire ECMO team including physicians, nurses, and perfusionists…The simulation is appropriate for ECMO beginners, centers that launch an ECMO program, or existing centers that would like to expand their knowledge and skills in VA and VV-ECMO management

Who are the trainers?
Trainers are physicians and nurses’ leaders in ECMO management and education

Faculty
– Pr Alain Combes
