Extracorporeal life support is increasingly used after cardiac surgery. Despite improved technology, outcome still remains poor. This retrospective multicenter cohort study aims to find the (risk) factors associated with the poor prognosis of these patients. Adult patients who received ECLS after cardiac surgery between 2000 and 2018 are eligible for inclusion
