On this, the 73rd day of #ecmo support for Covid, this young #pedsicu patient was decannulated. The work it took by the team & by him to survive these 73 days was inspirational & emotional. We’re so proud of him. His journey below in🧵 Shared w/ permission from his devoted mom 💪🏻 Part of his physical therapy and treatment plan for Covid was to prone on ecmo. He was our first @ChildrensMercy patient to do this on #ecmo. We developed hand signals so he could control the process every time. #rehablegend
