Area of Science:

  • Cardiovascular Medicine
  • Medical Technology
  • Latin American Healthcare

Background:

  • Latin America faces challenges in adopting and adapting new technologies.
  • Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is underutilized in the region.
  • Many Latin American centers lack structured ECMO training and ELSO registration.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the current state of ECMO implementation in Latin America.
  • To emphasize the need for improved technology adoption and standardized training.
  • To discuss the potential for advancing circulatory support programs in the region.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of ECMO utilization and challenges in Latin America.
  • Review of current training programs and ELSO registration status.
  • Exploration of international collaboration for knowledge transfer.

Main Results:

  • ECMO use is not widespread, with many centers lacking standardized training and reporting.
  • Despite challenges, results in collaborating Latin American ELSO centers are improving.
  • Adherence to international guidelines and standardized education are key factors.

Conclusions:

  • Improving ECMO adoption requires addressing technology acquisition and adaptation.
  • Structured training and international collaboration are crucial for advancing ECMO care in Latin America.
  • Enhanced training and adherence to ELSO guidelines can elevate circulatory support programs.
