Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation cannula dressing and securement practices: A point prevalence study
Variation exists in ECMO cannula dressing and securement practices across Australia and New Zealand intensive care units, and adherence to local guidelines is low. Further evidence on optimal cannula dressing and securement techniques is urgently required to inform the development of clinical practice guidelines and improve patient care and outcomes.
