## Resource

Folks this right here is a JAM PACKED episode of CCT goodness for you guys to enjoy! In this show for the ages we take a deep dive into the world of Mechanical Circulatory Support (MCS) and Cardiopulmonary Critical Care with one of the best in the biz, Dr. Bindu Akkanti! We will go through several fictional patients illustrating use cases, pitfalls and pearls of tools such as the balloon pump, ECMO and the microaxial flow devices used in ICUs all over the globe to help care for the sickest of the sick. If these tools ring a bell or if you are just interested in how we optimize care for these types of patients, give us a listen and let us know what you think! Hosted on Acast.
