“Data really powers everything that we do.” — Jeff Weiner

Dear Friends,
It is a great pleasure & honour to be the President of ECMO society of India. I remained as an active member of society since the inception of the society (2010) & served in different post. Our society has grown from neonates to paediatrics in last one decades & achieved few mile stones from 2010 till date like increased in member strength, developed our own website, our course got ELSO endorsed & now doing it twice a year, started Fellowship & certificate course for ECMO (from 2019) & we came out with our journal Indian Journal of ECMO (IJECMO) this year. Society is now approaching an adolescence age with full of energy, enthusiasm & many dreams to be fulfilled..

ECMO awareness has increased significantly during Covid time in Intensive care society with more centers initiated ECMO program. So, it’s the need of the time for our society to grow further & outreach all upcoming centers & help them develop ECMO program. One of the aims of the society is to have standardized ECMO practice & have our own guidelines.
As a President my vision for the coming year is –

Membership drive – Increase both individual and institutional membership.
To make some amendments in the society constitution & make major reforms like –
- Starting state branches of ESOI (should be done by end of May)
- Introduce standing committees – tenure will be for 3 years (by End of April)
- Start new Wings of ESOI – at present society has only one Academic wing, Society is planning to have 2 more wing – Paediatric & Paramedical wings with an intension to increase participation of our colleague of different speciality (by end of April)
To Initiate electronic election procedure from 2024 (details will be declared by October 2023)
To make our journal (IJECMO) quarterly & get it an Indexed journal (by mid of 2024)
To start collecting data from different centers – You can Enter the data directly on our website by clicking on this link https://www.ecmosocietyofindia.com/Ecmo_Datasheet.php
To come out with “Text Book of ECMO” from our society (by August 2023).
Increase the number of institutes affiliated for fellowship course so that we can enrol more fellowship & certificate students.
Emphasize to develop cardiac ECMO & ECPR program.
Data Collection – My message started with quote on data collection, my emphasis will be on making Indian ECLS Data & for that I am planning to make one of the standing committees on data & research which I will be heading. I will need all of yours whole hearted support. For data I just wants to say “With data collection, ‘the sooner the better’ is always the best answer.” — Marissa Mayer.
Initiate the process of Guidelines, recommendations & position paper from society.
SOP for standardization of ECMO training courses.

I will leave no stone unturned for the vertical growth of our society & I am sure with all the supports of my team & the members of society we will do the best.

Long live ESOI
