Abstract
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in the neonate is a term that has been used since the 1970s for respiratory failure refractory to medical management. With its ability to increase survival, uses of ECMO have expanded and long-term morbidities continue to be under investigation. In this article, we review the history of ECMO and current methods of delivery. In addition, we explore common complications for survivors after ECMO, new technologies that may change who receives ECMO, and how we deliver this life saving treatment.
