Our 4-day ECMO training course is designed for clinicians looking to deepen their ECMO knowledge through immersive, hands-on, high fidelity instruction. We deliver on-site education that blends didactic lectures, simulation-based scenarios, and skill assessments — all aligned with ELSO standards and your hospital’s protocols with the ECMO equipment platform you will be using after the training.
Led by experienced ECMO educators, this course includes 32+ hours of in-depth instruction, high fidelity simulations, scenario debriefs, and ECMO circuit skill training. Content is tailored to your team and patient population, including neonatal, pediatric, or adult modules. Our training covers circuit management, troubleshooting, emergencies, and interdisciplinary communication — preparing your team to deliver high-acuity ECMO care with confidence and precision.
This entry-level training course is built for nurses, respiratory therapists, PT/OT, Cath lab teams, and other ancillary team members who need to understand ECMO principles, equipment, and bedside responsibilities. Our instructors come to your facility to deliver in person education that prepares frontline staff to support ECMO patients safely and effectively.
These courses are repeated in 2-hour sessions over 1-2 days to introduce ECMO theory, cannula awareness, monitoring techniques, safety checklists, and interprofessional role clarity for the entire intensive care unit. Ideal for units preparing to care for ECMO patients or expand staffing roles, the course builds comfort and capability at the bedside. Participants leave with practical tools for safe patient support, stronger collaboration with ECMO specialists, and greater team coordination across shift changes and emergencies.
The course includes ECMO theory, circuit setup and troubleshooting, patient monitoring, emergency response, and interprofessional communication. We tailor each session to your team and patient population — neonatal, pediatric, or adult.
This course is designed for clinicians (perfusionists, nurses, RTs, and physicians) who are or will be actively involved in ECMO patient care or preparing to take on higher-level responsibilities.
Absolutely. We adapt the structure and clinical content to align with your protocols, equipment, and goals — ensuring maximum impact and operational fit.
This training is ideal for bedside nurses, respiratory therapists, and ancillary staff who assist with ECMO patients, but aren’t primarily responsible for managing the ECMO circuit. It builds understanding of roles, safety protocols, and team workflows.
The bedside caregiver course focuses on foundational knowledge and bedside best practices, while the full ECMO course offers in-depth clinical instruction, simulation, and circuit management.
This course typically runs for 2-hours and is offered multiple times over 1-2 consecutive days and can accommodate groups of 6–20 participants depending on your facility’s space and ongoing unit staffing needs.
