Abstract

The recent past has seen a surge in extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) usage and awareness among health care professionals. However, It is still thought that these complex modalities for managing critically ill patients is restricted to metros. Moreover awareness among healthcare professionals is crucial who are primarily managing these critically ill patients for timely advice for ECMO support. The best way to create awareness and encourage for research among the professionals is conferences. However, this is always challenging to organize an international event beyond the metros. This was the first ever South West Asian and African chapter Extracorporeal Life Support Organization (SWAAC ELSO) conference that was organized successfully from 10th to 12th March 2023 with high academic standards involving multiple specialties involved in ECMO management and care.
