My second #ELSO2026 and exciting to see all of the collaborators/thought leaders moving the field forward. Talking with clinicians at different centers, with the lack of evidence, practice patterns are drastically different and there is a need for #IDSky research in these critically ill patients.

PCT is a bad prognostic sign (as BALANCE study demonstrated as well) and should be interpreted with caution in ECMO as a sign of an infection #IDSky #ELSO2026

Important factor for #IDSky clinicians taking care of ECMO patients: ECMO is extremely pro-inflammatory and inflammatory markers should be interpreted with caution. #ELSO2026

Impressive talk about setting up an ECMO team at finish line of NYC marathon and Brooklyn half marathon where cardiac arrest happens too often. Luckily no one needed to be cannulated yet. #ELSO2026

Many considerations when dosing antimicrobials during ECMO considering; -Protein binding -Hydrophilic/Lipophilic medications -The pts underlying critical illness (likely the most important) #ELSO2026

The oldest patient in 🇯🇵 placed on ECMO at time of cardiac arrest (ECPR) to survive with a favorable neurological outcome? 90. Those age >75 have lower risk of favorable outcome, but may not be complete contraindication #ELSO2026

STI rates are normally presented in person years of susceptible individuals, but how many of these individuals are tested? Why are they tested? For example, the rates of CT in military women is 3-5x higher than men(?!) How could that possibly be the case?

Of the factors associated with high-reliability ECMO ID studies, this has two. We need more ID doctors in this space. 1) ✅ 2) ❌ 3) ❌ 4) ❌ 5) ✅ -> but concern if followed 6) ❌ ->not by site

Important work! Interesting that the article uses a different genus name than the commentary. Which should we use? Great commentary @drrossanarosa.bsky.social!
