A new study reveals practical, ultrasound-based tools that help clinicians accurately predict fluid responsiveness in prone VV-ECMO patients—a group long considered difficult to assess. At IEC, we equip programs with the training and protocols to use these tools confidently, helping teams protect lungs, improve outcomes, and manage the tightrope of ARDS care with clarity.

A groundbreaking study in Critical Care reveals that blood cell salvage (BCS) during ECMO decannulation can reduce transfusion needs by 50%. At IEC, we help hospitals lead with evidence by building protocols that conserve blood, protect patients, and optimize every step of ECMO care—from cannulation to decannulation.

A new case report proves what our teams have long believed—ECMO isn’t just life support. It’s surgical support. From complex airway procedures to mediastinal masses, ECMO is enabling surgeries that once seemed impossible. At IEC, we’re pioneering the use of ECMO as more than a backup—it’s now a frontline tool for surgical innovation.
