Abstract

Since the first use in neonates in 1974, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has been a life-saving technology for newborns with respiratory and cardiac failure. ECMO has been used to treat a variety of cardio-respiratory problems, including meconium aspiration syndrome (MAS), persistent pulmonary hypertension of the neonate (PPHN), congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH), sepsis, and cardiac anomalies. For this group of high-mortality neonates, ECMO has produced a survival of 76% in all newborns treated. This review article will examine the current selection criteria for ECMO, the clinical management of neonates on ECMO and discuss the long-term outcome of neonates treated with ECMO.
