Abstract
Acute myocarditis leading to severe heart failure in paediatric patients is an uncommon but potentially life-threatening condition. The prompt implant of mechanical circulatory devices such as veno-arterial extra-corporeal membrane oxygenation remains the best treatment option to restore an adequate perfusion and improve patient survival in case of refractory cardiogenic shock cases. While few reports describe the in-hospital course of this dramatic disease, with an in-hospital mortality under veno-arterial extra-corporeal membrane oxygenation support around 30%, our study aims to analyse both short- and long-term outcomes after extra-corporeal membrane oxygenation implant.
期刊介绍：
Cardiology in the Young is devoted to cardiovascular issues affecting the young, and the older patient suffering the sequels of congenital heart disease, or other cardiac diseases acquired in childhood. The journal serves the interests of all professionals concerned with these topics. By design, the journal is international and multidisciplinary in its approach, and members of the editorial board take an active role in the its mission, helping to make it the essential journal in paediatric cardiology. All aspects of paediatric cardiology are covered within the journal. The content includes original articles, brief reports, editorials, reviews, and papers devoted to continuing professional development.
