ECMO transport program was launched to offer lifesaving medical treatment to patients throughout the process of transportation and make sure they remain in stable condition until the journey ends. ECMO stands for Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation which is provided to a patient whose heart or lungs are failing and need the support of an ECMO program while they are traveling from one place to another. We make sure to have ECMO specialists and equipment installed inside Vedanta Air Ambulance to keep the health of the patient in a sound state and manage the entire process of repatriation without compromising their comfort and safety.
Our ECMO transfer program seems to be the best alternative for patients who are advised to travel in an Intensive Care setting and need end-to-end medical support so that their medical condition doesn’t deteriorate at any point. Our ECMO experts are specifically certified to only handle patients with chronic heart or lung diseases and offer them the necessary treatment and care throughout the process to make sure the journey doesn’t cause discomfort at any point. We have advanced life support facilities that enable high-risk patients to travel without experiencing any trauma. There are two types of ECMO-
- Venoarterial for heart patients
- Venovenous for lung patients
