Required reading for all learners: Implicit Bias impacts patient outcomes
Weaning from veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) support is a real challenge and the echocardiogram is fundamental. We found as echocardiographic parameters related to weaning success a higher left ventricular outflow tract time–velocity integral, 1:1 aortic valve opening, and qualitative normal right ventricular function, highlighting the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) as independent predictor with a cut-off value >33.4%.Learners must attend/view/read the entire activity, read Implicit Bias impacts patient outcomes, and complete the associated evaluation to be awarded the contact hours or CERP. No partial credit will be awarded.
