Long-Term Outcomes After Extracorporeal Life Support for Acute Respiratory Failure.
Journal of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia(2019)
Abstract
This study demonstrated persistent physical and psychological impairments in survivors of ECLS. Patients consistently expressed a desire to debrief on their hospital course and receive education on possible long-term effects. Study findings suggest that structured follow-up may allow for early identification of psychological and physical impairments to improve outcomes. Future studies should focus on investigating the effect of rehabilitation and follow-up clinics in preventing these issues.
