Long-term functional and psychological recovery in a population of ARDS patients treated with VV-ECMO and in their caregivers.

CONCLUSIONS: At almost three-year follow-up, ARDS survivors treated with VV-ECMO showed reduced health-related quality-of-life and high risk of psychological impairment, in particu- lar PTSD. Caregivers of this population were at high psychological risk as well. PMID: 30665282 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
