ECMO

Jensen's heart is fantastic with the Sano. His little body is a different story. He's been through much today that the rest of his body is having a hard time recovering. So his team has decided that in order to give his heart a break and let his body recover, they will put him on ECMO. This is a heart lung machine like what they use in the OR but he will be on it in the CICU. It will probably take a day to a few days for his organs to start functioning properly again. We will be able to see him soon and then talk with Dr.Fuller.
