At times of global crisis, this is where teams show their strength. We have now more than. 50 centres in 20+ countries. over 4 continents that have signed up for the ECMOCARD study. Each night more centres are contacting us to join to work together; innovators and trailblazers that have come before us have given us the skills to hopefully be able to help the most critically unwell. It is in this environment that I am delighted that the father of #ECMO, Prof. Bob Bartlett has written to congratulate the ECMOCARD on the global collaboration we have created.

03.01.2022 Do you remember being 18? Zac Esso wasnt your average 18 year old He went from being a regular teenager who loved playing cricket, footy and soccer to being... diagnosed with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Its a condition that reduces the hearts ability to pump blood around the body. His condition worsened and he had a heart defibrillator implanted which helped to start his heart again after having five cardiac arrests. Zac remembers that his first cardiac arrest was exactly like in the movies, where there was a big black hole with all my friends faces whizzing past, slowly getting smaller and smaller. It got to a small dot before it stopped and then my whole world sucked back into it. And that was me waking up and breathing again. His health continued to decline so rapidly that he was put on the list for a heart transplant, less than one year after diagnosis. Last year at age 19, Zac was given the gift of life through a heart transplant. This year, Zac is going to ride the 60km Medio Course in Tour de Brisbane to raise funds for transplant research. He wanted to give back Such an inspirational young man despite all the hard things hes been through, his positivity and gratitude truly shines!
