In this World Shared Practice Forum Podcast, Dr. Graeme MacLaren shares his expert insight on the outcomes of central versus peripheral cannulation techniques for Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) in pediatric patients with refractory septic shock as published in the February issue of Pediatric Critical Care Medicine. The discussion focuses on the implications of ECMO modality choices, the conditions affecting cannulation strategy, and how institutional resources can impact patient outcomes.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
- Differentiate between central and peripheral venoarterial ECMO strategies in pediatric septic shock
- Analyze key papers in the literature to provide context for decision-making around ECMO deployment in refractory septic shock
- Identify factors influencing the success and outcome of ECMO in refractory pediatric septic shock cases
- Apply considerations for patient selection and institutional resource availability in ECMO planning

In this World Shared Practice Forum podcast, Dr. Jeffrey Burns converses with experts Drs. Akash Deep, James Squires, and Barbara Wildhaber about pediatric acute liver failure and the intricacies of deciding when a child is unsuitable for liver transplantation. Discussing insights from their 2024 Lancet Child Health and Adolescent Health paper, they emphasize the importance of a multidisciplinary approach in evaluating clinical, biochemical, psychosocial, and ethical factors. The conversation highlights challenges with exclusion criteria, risks associated with severe multi-organ failure, and the necessity of balancing technical feasibility with overall patient prognosis, while also addressing the ethical implications of organ allocation.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
- Identify key clinical and biochemical factors in evaluating pediatric liver transplant suitability
- Discuss the ethical and logistical considerations impacting transplant decisions in critically ill children with liver failure
- Summarize multidisciplinary approaches for determining when a child may be unsuitable for a liver transplant

In this World Shared Practice Forum podcast, Dr. Dennis Daniel discusses pediatric extracorporeal life support (ECLS) with experts Drs. Peta Alexander and Ryan Barbaro. They explore the differences between pediatric and adult extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR), highlighting differing causes of cardiac arrest and the interpretation of recently published studies. The discussion also covers supply chain issues affecting ECMO availability, the importance of standardized, evidence-based practices to identifying ECMO-associated complications, and opportunities for future research into ECMO use and outcomes.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
- Identify the key differences between pediatric and adult extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR), focusing on technical challenges and typical causes of cardiac arrest
- Discuss the challenges facing standardization of pediatric ECMO care, including supply chain issues and approaches to capturing and classifying ECMO-associated complications
- Describe areas of need and opportunity for future research in pediatric ECMO
