Summary

This study followed 38 adults who survived severe breathing failure from the 2009 H1N1 flu. Researchers compared those who needed a machine to oxygenate their blood (ECMO) with those who did not. They measured lung function, quality of life, and mental health at least 9 months after leaving the ICU to understand long-term effects.
