Department of Surgery, Division of Cardiothoracic Surgery

Lehigh Valley Health Network, Allentown, PA

Abstract

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is an aggressive life support technique that utilizes extracorporeal circuits and oxygenators to support severe lung injury such as acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), as well as severe cardiac disorders like cardiogenic shock and cardiac arrest. Veno-Venous (VV) ECMO is primarily used in respiratory distress. Clots can form within the oxygenator …

Septal Myectomy In Obstructive Hcm High Risk Patients, Heather Geist, James K. Wu Md Oct 2013

Septal Myectomy In Obstructive Hcm High Risk Patients, Heather Geist, James K. Wu Md

James K. Wu, M.D.

Working with Dr. Wu and intermittently Dr. Martinez, I have been doing a retroactive study on the success and effectiveness of septal myectomy for high risk/elderly patients expressing hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM). I have spent time learning a great deal about this disease, meeting with patients pre and post surgery in the office with Dr. Martinez, as well as observing the surgical procedures preformed by Dr. Wu. My main role in this project was to gather the data for the cohort of 20 patients and then to perform an analysis of the data to help draw conclusions. Through analysis of …
