There will be opportunities to participate in the delivery of PCC and retrieval service as well The ECMO serviceThe Evelina ECMO service is expanding with approximately 20 ECMO runs annually accounting for 160 calendar days of ECMO. Originally set up to support cardiac surgery, the majority of ECMO cases are now respiratory and our team our pushing boundaries by supporting children as small as 2kg with venovenous ECMO. The service is co-located with the largest NICU in the UK and the largest adult respiratory ECMO service in Europe (GSTT). As our PICU has general and cardiac patients, our ethos is to manage all ECMO referrals within Evelina so that those severe respiratory failure patients who ultimately don't require ECMO are still managed under our care. We are fully integrated within the PICU and the ECMO fellow assists the airway fellow in investigation and management of patients with airway issues and respiratory failure and vice versa. The Airway Service The paediatric critical care airway service is based within the PICU and has arisen from the need for airway interventions in a cohort of patients admitted to PICU.The majority of these have an underlying cardiac/vascular diagnosis.The team provide a bronchoscopy service to the following patients:o PICU bronchoscopies - 150/yearo Vascular airway bronchoscopies - 50/year (cardiac theatre)o Airway stents - (Cath lab) in collaboration with paediatric IRo Elective airway lists for bronchoscopy usually combined with CT scan of lungs and airways.
