Article Synopsis
- A retrospective study of patients who received extracorporeal life support from 1992 to 2010 aimed to analyze long-term survival rates and late mortality, with a focus on the most severely ill children.
- Out of 741 children, 36.7% experienced early deaths, while 6.2% faced late deaths, with a median follow-up of 7.1 years for survivors.
- Survival rates varied significantly by diagnosis, with the highest rates for meconium aspiration syndrome (88%) and the lowest for congenital heart disease (32%), with late deaths more common in those with complex conditions such as heart disease.
