Abstract Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) is a life-support technique used in patients with severe cardiac or respiratory failure when conventional therapies, including cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), are unsuccessful. ECMO functions by diverting blood from the body through a circuit where it is oxygenated and returned, allowing the heart and lungs to rest and recover. The system typically includes two cannulas: a drainage cannula that removes deoxygenated blood and a return cannula that delivers oxygenated blood back into circulation. There are two main types of ECMO. Veno-venous (VV) ECMO, primarily used for severe respiratory failure. Veno-arterial (VA) ECMO, used for cardiac or cardiorespiratory failure. During ECMO support, anticoagulation monitoring is critical to maintain a delicate balance between thrombosis and bleeding risks. Continuous heparin administration is commonly used, necessitating close monitoring due to potential complications such as Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT)Neurological complications, including ischemic or haemorrhagic stroke Infections and sepsis, which can worsen outcomes and complicate management. Outcomes with ECMO have improved in recent years, especially in conditions such as cardiac arrest, cardiogenic shock, and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), including cases caused by COVID-19. Careful patient selection and expert multidisciplinary management are essential for optimizing survival and minimizing complication
