Jinan Third People's Hospital Uses ECMO To Save Cardiac Arrest Patient At The Brink Of Death

A female patient suffered sudden chest pain and lost consciousness while receiving treatment at another hospital, placing her life in critical danger. Upon receiving the emergency call, the Emergency Medicine Department of Jinan Third People's Hospital quickly activated its chest pain rescue protocol and dispatched a professional team to the scene.

During transport, the 120 emergency team performed high-quality CPR and defibrillation while closely coordinating with the hospital's Chest Pain Center. Their swift actions secured precious time for life-saving treatment.

After reviewing the patient's electrocardiogram and condition summary, the Director of the Cardiology Diagnosis and Treatment Center led the interventional team into action. Using high-definition imaging from WeMed Medical's Medical Angiography X-ray System-Pilot-c, the team successfully reopened the blocked vessel in just 14 minutes. They initiated IABP therapy to stabilize the patient, but due to extensive myocardial infarction, severe ventricular fibrillation, and refractory cardiogenic shock, her condition remained critical.

The ECMO team quickly established ECMO within 20 minutes, temporarily stabilizing the patient's vital signs. The team continuously monitored key indicators such as coagulation, heart, and kidney functions, employing a multidisciplinary approach. A personalized multi-organ support plan was implemented, combining ECMO, IABP, CRRT, and lung-protective ventilation strategies.

Thanks to ongoing assessments and adjustments, the patient's condition gradually improved. Five days later, ECMO support was removed, followed by the smooth removal of the endotracheal tube and IABP catheter. The patient recovered from her life-threatening condition, regaining the ability to move independently and communicate normally. Recently, she was transferred to Cardiovascular Medicine Ward 1 for further rehabilitation.

WeMed Medical's Medical Angiography X-ray System-Pilot-c sets a new benchmark in interventional imaging. Featuring a unique foldable seven-axis intelligent gantry system, it offers maximum patient coverage with minimal movement radius. The system integrates a complete high-definition imaging chain, including liquid metal bearing tubes, a variable-frequency high-voltage generator, and a high-definition flat-panel detector, providing exceptional clarity and resolution for vascular imaging.

By combining Medical Angiography X-ray System, Endovascular Robotic System, and AI technology, WeMed Medical has created an advanced "eye-hand-brain" collaborative solution that allows for "autonomous driving" within blood vessels. This innovative solution is currently at the forefront of global medical technology, positioning WeMed Medical as a leader in the field.
