Evidence-based recommendations on VA ECMO for extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) in adults with refractory cardiac arrest. This involves using an artificial lung to oxygenate the blood outside the body.
Low-energy contact X-ray brachytherapy for rectal cancer (HTG763)
Evidence-based recommendations on low-energy contact X-ray brachytherapy for rectal cancer. This involves inserting an X-ray tube through the anus into the rectum. The tube is placed in contact with the tumour and releases a low dose of X-ray radiation (brachytherapy) directly to it.
VA ECMO for postcardiotomy cardiogenic shock in adults (HTG762)
