Family guide to ECMO [English] Permalink Public
ECMO (say ‘eck-mo’) stands for ExtraCorporeal Membrane Oxygenation. ‘Extracorporeal’ means outside the body. The machine puts oxygen into the blood, and then circulates it back through the body. This therapy is used when the heart and/or lungs are not working well enough to support the body on their own. (English) Black & White
