Kasturba Hospital Manipal Saves Patient in Cardiac Arrest Using ECMO

In a dramatic medical rescue, a patient in cardiac arrest was successfully revived at Kasturba Hospital in Manipal after the medical team employed extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support.

The use of ECMO, a life‑saving technology that oxygenates blood outside the body, enabled the patient’s heart rhythm to stabilize and vital signs to improve while the doctors treated the underlying cause of the arrest.

This successful outcome underscores the hospital’s advanced cardiac care capabilities and offers hope to families facing similar emergencies. Source: Google News – Manipal.
