Pediatr Crit Care Med. 2010;11(3):362-71. This is an excellent presentation of the outcomes of the use of ECMO in pediatric cardiac arrest. This report provides support for the utility of such a treatment strategy. However, one must balance these outcomes with the alternative of no intervention in the setting of cardiac arrest and nearly certain mortality.
