Abstract
Computed tomography scans of the head and early neurodevelopmental ass essment (Bayley Scales of Infant Development) were recorded for 24 sur viving infants who received venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygena tion and were compared with those of infants treated with venoarterial bypass matched by diagnosis and oxygenation index before extracorpore al membrane oxygenation. A comparable neuroradiographic and early neur odevelopmental outcome was documented for survivors of venoarterial an d venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.
