Saddened to hear about the passing of Dr. Bartlett. May he rest in peace and may we continue to embody his legacy in the important work we do #PedsICU
◾️In Memoriam of Robert H. Bartlett, MD 1939-2025 ◾️
Without Dr. Bartlett, there is no ECMO: he saved more than 100,000 patients through his life’s work. He changed the world.
He will forever be the Father of ECMO.
