It gives me immense pleasure to apprise you all that Divine Heart and Multispecialty Hospital at Lucknow has become First Hospital in Private Sector in State of Uttar Pradesh to be equipped with a life-saving machine called ECMO (Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation) also called Extracorporeal Life Support Device.

It is used as a bridge to Life or bridge to transplant to save a life from Heart and Lungs failure when ordinary ventilators and other cardiac assist devices fail to provide adequate oxygenation and blood flow (Cardiac Output) to sustain life.

Life can be prolonged in the terminal stage of disease in order to allow the organs to recover.

A team of Cardiac Surgeons, Cardiologists, Anesthesiologists Perfusionist, Medical Officer to provide Whole Blood, PRVC, Components and Single Donor Platelets 24 hours round the clock.
