AB  - Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA ECMO) is used for the 
      management of acute cardiogenic shock with improving short term survival. 
      However, the long-term quality of life (QOL) of this patient population is not 
      well characterized. We prospectively evaluated the QOL of adult patients who 
      survived VA ECMO support for cardiogenic shock at our institution between October 
      2011 and January 2018 with the Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire 
      (MLWHFQ). We surveyed survivors at 3, 6, and 9 months after discharge, and 
      annually for up to 5 years thereafter. A total of 64 patients were evaluated: 
      mean age 54 +/- 13 years, 73% male. There were 178 total surveys completed. MLWHFQ 
      total scores significantly improved over time and this pattern was sustained 
      (51.7 +/- 25.3 at 3 months, vs 37.7 +/- 23.6 at 6 months, vs 25.4 +/- 21.3 at ⩾9 months 
      (p < 0.01, p-trend < 0.01)). Most patients supported with VA ECMO for cardiogenic 
      shock who survive to discharge demonstrate excellent quality of life, 6 months 
      since index hospitalization, which is maintained over subsequent years.
