Background Transport of patients to a higher level of care is a decision we make daily in the prehospital setting as well as at the hospital. There has been literature to support the use of air in trauma-both because of the time to definitive care but also the critical care that can be started at the scene.

No-flow time without CPR should be very brief (witnessed is best), but low-flow time (with CPR) can actually be very long and still have good outcomes with ECPR. Mechanical CPR devices help by reducing energy in the room and reducing movement of the lower body; if not present, assign someone to manually stabilize the pelvis.
