The Adult ECMO Specialist course is designed to teach the provider wishing to learn Adult V-A and V-V ECMO. The course has two options. Option one is the Full Course which includes two days of live, online didactic learning, and two days of in-person simulation. The didactic portion is fully interactive and limited to 16 learners. After successful completion of the full course, learners receive their full CEU/CME/CE credits and a certificate of successful completion of the Adult ECMO Specialist Course.
The didactic-only course is live and interactive via our private youtube channel. Learners are required to perform a roll call each day and ask four questions each day to verify participation. After completion of the course, validation of attendance, and completion of the course evaluation, learners receive their CEU/CME/CE credit.
The didactic-only course cannot be used for a future full program.

Full Program

The “Full Program” is designed to prepare the learner for the ELSO Adult ECMO Certification Exam. Following completion of the course, it is the learner’s responsibility to ensure they have sufficient bedside ECMO monitoring hours for eligibility to sit for the ELSO Adult ECMO Specialist exam. The “Full Program” is limited to 16 participants. Participants are required to be present and visible, via the participants’ webcam through Zoom. Learners are required to participate in post-lecture discussions.
Full Program participants must sign up and attend both sections (didactic and simulation) at the scheduled time. Participants are required to actively participate and pass a written post-program exam to be eligible to receive a certificate of course completion. The passing score is 80%.

PerfWeb 100: Essential Techniques in Perfusion - RAPP and Hgb Thresholds
2026-01-19 14:18
PerfWeb 100

Day 1
RAPP (Retrograde Autologous Prime)
Presenter: Samir Patel, MD, Graduate Perfusionist
Time: 14:00–15:00
Back when I started in perfusion, priming the cardiopulmonary bypass circuit meant dumping in crystalloid and hoping the patient wouldn’t drown in fluid overload. Then RAPP—Retrograde Autologous Prime—came along and flipped the script. In this session, Dr. Samir Patel, a skilled graduate perfusionist, dives into this game-changing technique that uses the patient’s own blood to prime the circuit, slashing hemodilution and preserving hematocrit.
Dr. Patel will walk you through the nuts and bolts: draining venous blood, displacing crystalloid, and reinfusing—all while keeping the patient stable. I’ll share a standout case where RAPP saved the day for a Jehovah’s Witness patient who refused transfusions—proof of its worth. You’ll master cannula placement, pressure control, and timing, plus learn how RAPP cuts transfusion rates and post-op complications. Whether you’re a newbie or a veteran, this lecture will sharpen your skills and show why RAPP’s a must-have in my toolkit
Hgb Thresholds
Presenter: Samir Patel, MD, Graduate Perfusionist
Time: 15:00–16:00
Hemoglobin thresholds have sparked debates for decades. Early in my career, an Hgb below 10 meant grabbing a blood bag—no questions asked. Today, we’re wiser, and the evidence is richer. Dr. Samir Patel tackles this in a session that’s all about balancing oxygen delivery with transfusion risks.
He’ll unpack the science of Hgb levels and tissue perfusion, diving into trials and guidelines that shape when we pull the transfusion trigger. I’ll throw in a story of a mid-case Hgb drop to 7, where split-second decisions tested our team. We’ll cover special cases—kids, the elderly, complex patients—and the risks of over- or under-transfusing. This is vital for perfusionists, surgeons, and ICU crews who live these choices daily. Walk away with a sharper eye for Hgb management, backed by Dr. Patel’s expertise and my decades of real-time lessons.

Mastering Ultrafiltration & Fluid Balance in Perfusion - Essential Techniques & Insights
2026-01-19 14:18
PerfWeb 100 – Day 2

Benefits of Ultrafiltration
Presenter: J. Basha, CCP
Time: 14:00–15:00
Ultrafiltration hit perfusion like a lifeline, giving us control over fluid overload when diuretics alone wouldn’t cut it. J. Basha, CCP, leads this session to show why it’s a cornerstone of my practice after 40 years.
Basha will break down how ultrafiltration strips out excess water and solutes via semi-permeable membranes, while keeping proteins and cells intact. It’s not just fluid removal—it’s precision, reducing edema and even inflammatory markers. I’ll recall a heart failure case where ultrafiltration got us off bypass when the odds were grim. You’ll learn the types (conventional, modified, zero-balance), how to weave it into your circuit, and how to dodge pitfalls like hypotension. Perfusionists will find this essential; OR teams will see its teamwork value. Join us to harness ultrafiltration’s power for better outcomes.
Assessment of Patient Fluid Balance and Status
Presenters: S. Patel, MD, J. Basha, CCP
Time: 15:00–17:00
Fluid balance is perfusion’s quiet MVP—nail it, and the case flows; botch it, and you’re in chaos. Dr. S. Patel and J. Basha team up to decode this critical skill over a two-hour deep dive.
They’ll cover the tools—CVP, PA pressures, TEE, bioimpedance—and how to read them amid bypass’s wild fluid shifts. I’ll share my go-to signs, like venous oxygen saturation shifts, that scream trouble early. Expect actionable strategies: pre-op prep, intra-op tweaks, and post-op stability, with tips like using albumin for oncotic pressure. This is for perfusionists, anesthesiologists, and surgeons—it’s a team effort.
