Rapid CPR and ECMO Revive Cardiac Arrest Patient at Manipal Hospital

In a remarkable medical turnaround, patients undergoing cardiopulmonary arrest at Manipal Hospital were successfully revived through the combined use of rapid cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) therapy.

ECMO, an advanced life-support technique that oxygenates the blood outside the body, was employed immediately after initial CPR to stabilize the patient's heart function. The intervention reflects the hospital’s commitment to cutting‑edge cardiac care within Udupi district.

The quick response and sophisticated equipment resulted in a positive outcome for the patient, underscoring the importance of preparedness and advanced training in critical care. Source: Google News – Manipal.
