FLIGHT-to-ECPR Study: A refractory cardiac arrest patient who's an ECPR candidate has a real path to survival. Geography alone shouldn't preclude ECPR. If your HEMS team has access to ECPR, please fly the candidate! It's time to retire the phrase "we don't fly dead patients."

An incredible example of @AMPAdocs #FlightPhysicians advancing Critical Care Transport Medicine to provide definitive care to the rural US! @jason_bartos @DYannopoulos @laertezz @DrPaulRees @LifeLinkIII @MMRCbeat @MHealthFairview @HelmsleyTrust

Can you estimate a patient’s weight accurately enough to keep a flight safe? When minutes matter, guessing a patient’s weight isn’t good enough. A new study just changed the game for critical care transport teams. Read the full open access article here: ow.ly/b7vy50XoCLI
