Abstract
All children, except for two, came walking to the follow-up visit. All parents were positive to the ECMO treatment, and reported a good or slightly reduced quality of life for their child. Cerebral sequelae were frequently found in children treated with ECMO. The need for treatment and support should be assessed in order to optimize their physical and psychosocial functioning.
