Does your heart beat on ECMO?

Excuse me, but I couldn't help but notice the mention of ECMO in your statement. Could you elaborate on the context in which you are asking if someone's heart beats on ECMO? ECMO, or Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation, is a life-saving treatment that provides both cardiac and respiratory support to critically ill patients whose heart and lungs are unable to function adequately. It is not a treatment that causes the heart to beat, but rather supports the body while medical professionals work to address the underlying issues. Are you perhaps asking about the role of ECMO in maintaining circulation and oxygenation while a patient's heart is recovering from a critical illness or injury? Or is there another aspect of ECMO that you're curious about?
