AB  - Extracorporeal  life  support  (ECLS),  also  referred  to  as  extracorporeal  membrane  oxygenation  (ECMO),  provides  either  direct  cardiac/pulmonary  support  (venoarterial  [VA]  ECLS)  or  indirect  cardiac/pulmonary  support  (venovenous  [VV]  ECLS)  by  providing  oxygen  (O2)  delivery  and  carbon  dioxide  (CO2)  removal  in  neonates  with  reversible  life-threatening  respiratory  or  cardiac  disease.  While  on  ECLS,  blood  is  drained  from  the  right  atrium  through  a  cannula  with  the  aid  of  a  pump  and  then  propelled  through  an  oxygenator  where  gas  exchange  occurs.  From  there,  it  is  returned  to  the  aorta  (VA)  or  right  atrium  (VV)  (Figure  20–1).  Uniform  guidelines  have  been  established  to  describe  essential  equipment,  procedures,  personnel,  and  training  required  for  ECLS  and  can  be  found  in  Extracorporeal  Life  Support:  The  ELSO  Red  Book,  5th  Edition,  and  Extracorporeal  Membrane  Oxygenation  (ECLS)  Specialist  Training  Manual  published  by  the  Extracorporeal  Life  Support  Organization  (ELSO)  and  on  the  ELSO  website.
