| Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation with extracorporeal warming is the gold standard treatment for patients with profound hypothermia. |
| So they switched her to an artificial-lung system known as ECMO — extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. |
| This procedure uses artificial extracorporeal circulation to provide oxygenated blood to vital organs while the heart is stopped. |
| An example of such a process was the United Kingdom extracorporeal membrane oxygenation collaborative trial in neonates. |
| Another approach, extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy, uses shock waves to break up the stones into tiny pieces that can then pass easily out of the system. |
| The other so-called revolutionary treatment is extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy, where gallstones are crushed by sound waves. |
