Cardiac malposition, redistribution of fetal cardiac output, and left heart hypoplasia reduce survival in neonates with congenital diaphragmatic hernia requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

Abstract

To evaluate cardiac position, left ventricular (LV) mass, and distribution of fetal cardiac output in infants with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) who required extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), and in control subjects.
