Episode 7-ECMO with Dr. Jared Mickelson

We are very excited to introduce Dr. Jared Mickelson, a critical care pulmonologist whose work lives at the intersection of innovation, advocacy, and lifesaving medicine. As an active member of the hospital’s ECMO committee, he is advocating for advanced cardiopulmonary support here at UMass — pushing beyond the status quo to expand what’s possible for patients with severe respiratory failure. This episode has everything from clinical pearls to behind the scenes insight into what it takes to run ECMO.
