ELSO Guidelines for Pediatric Patients with Pediatric Malignancy, Based on my work in this category of ECLS care and a previous collaborative effort for ELSO guidelines, I was asked to write Guidelines for Pediatric Patients with Malignancy Requiring ECMO Support. Preliminary guidelines were written in collaboration with Dr. Kenneth Gow (Seattle Children‘s) and are currently in review by the ELSO website editors. 09/2014 to Present.
