ECMO-VA
ECMO VA
Description
This validation scenario simulates the management of hemorrhagic shock followed by VA-ECMO support. The scenario begins with a class 2 hemorrhage. Hemorrhages are stopped, and VA-ECMO is initiated with an internal jugular vein inlet and carotid artery outlet.
Segment Validation
Segment 1
Initiate a 90 ml/min hemorrhage from the right arm. Initiate a 50 ml/min hemorrhage from the vena cava. Run for 590s.
