One-year cognitive and neurologic outcomes in survivors of paediatric extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation

Resuscitation Mar 01, 2019

Meert K, et al. - Researchers examined extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) survivors enrolled in the Therapeutic Hypothermia after Paediatric Cardiac Arrest In-Hospital (THAPCA-IH) trial to delineate their one-year cognitive and neurologic outcomes. Further, they compared outcomes between survivors who received ECPR, later extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), or no ECMO. One hundred twenty-seven survivors with pre-arrest Vineland Adaptive Behaviour Scales, 2nd edition (VABS-II) >70 were followed-up for 1-year; 57 of these received ECPR, 14 received ECMO later in their course, and 56 did not receive ECMO.
