Review: Great for kids - My daughter was on ecmo and my other daughter is 3yrs old. This book is a great way to be able to discuss the procedure and the reason it's needed for. Review: Perfect for PICU Staff, Patients, and Families - As someone who works with kiddos on ECMO, I found this book to be extremely well written and medically accurate. We recently had a school-aged child on ECMO who enjoyed when his parents read this to him. It also helps siblings at home understand what’s going on with their brother / sister. Highly recommend! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #238,137 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #250 in Children's Books on Diseases & Physical Illness | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 49 Reviews | ## Images ![Ernie the Elephant needs ECMO: a nurse Dotty book - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51GDV+adz8L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for kids *by K***K on May 30, 2025* My daughter was on ecmo and my other daughter is 3yrs old. This book is a great way to be able to discuss the procedure and the reason it's needed for. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for PICU Staff, Patients, and Families *by C***. on June 26, 2024* As someone who works with kiddos on ECMO, I found this book to be extremely well written and medically accurate. We recently had a school-aged child on ECMO who enjoyed when his parents read this to him. It also helps siblings at home understand what’s going on with their brother / sister. Highly recommend! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is amazing *by R***. on May 24, 2022* Not only is this completely accurate, it is written so well for children. Plus it’s so cute! The pump nurse’s name is Flo! And at the end the elephant has a triple lumen central line in place. It’s those tiny details that make it even more wonderful for kids going through that, or seeing their siblings go through that. These kiddos might not be awake when we cannulate them, but often times it’s not too long before they wake up with giant cannulas full of their blood leaving their body. That’s really scary, and it’s also really uncomfortable. They can’t see themselves or everything that’s going on when they can hardly turn their head. This will be extremely valuable. I’ve purchased one myself for a patient, and I’m going to take it to our child life department so hopefully we can give one to each child that could use it. I would buy every book she’s published for kids. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/264126427-ernie-the-elephant-needs-ecmo-a-nurse-dotty-book](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/264126427-ernie-the-elephant-needs-ecmo-a-nurse-dotty-book) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-08-21*
