The goal of this project is to automate the cannulation procedure to improve reliability and expand ECMO access, which is constrained by limited ECMO-trained physicians. The Lifemotion Clinic team was tasked with the design and rapid iteration of an electromechanical device for enhancing cannulation efficiency.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lifemotion Medical Engineering\/Global, 2025\u201326 Liaison(s): Michael Van Driel \u201991\/92, Dr. Roberto Lorusso Advisor(s): Steven Santana \u201906 Students(s): Caiya Coggshall (TL-S), [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[164,186],"tags":[764],"class_list":["post-14878","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-engineering","category-global","tag-lifemotion-medical"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14878","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14878"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14878\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14921,"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14878\/revisions\/14921"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14878"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=14878"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=14878"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
