Role Played by ECMO in Critical Care
Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) plays a pivotal role in critical care, providing advanced life support for patients with severe cardiac or respiratory failure. By temporarily assuming the function of the heart and lungs, ECMO allows vital organs to recover, offering a crucial bridge to recovery or transplant. Its capacity to maintain oxygenation and circulation in critically ill patients underscores ECMO's significance as a lifesaving intervention in the intensive care setting.

Massive Transfusion Protocol
Massive Transfusion Protocol (MTP) is a standardized medical procedure activated in cases of severe hemorrhage, typically involving the rapid administration of large volumes of blood products. The goal is to restore circulating volume, maintain hemostasis, and prevent the lethal triad of hypothermia, acidosis, and coagulopathy. MTP usually involves a balanced ratio of packed red blood cells, plasma, and platelets, often in a 1:1:1 ratio. Early activation and coordination among trauma teams, laboratory services, and blood banks are essential for its success.
Sleep Apnea and Daytime Fatigue
Sleep Disorder Breathing is a term for a group of conditions with abnormal breathing patterns during sleep. This affects everyday functioning and well being.There are few types of SDB which include upper airways resistance, hypopnea, apnea, catathrenia and heavy snoring. People suffering with SDB can have daytime symptoms that result in poor sleep also. There can also be sleepiness, depressed mood, irritability and cognitive dysfunction.
