Background  As extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has been widely used, the patient quality of life following ECMO termination has become an important issue as same as the patient’s survival. To date, the factors affecting complete recovery of adult survivors from ECMO have not been investigated.    Methods  Data from adult patients in the Extracorporeal Life Support Organization registry who received veno-venous ECMO between 2012 and 2017 were analyzed. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted.    Results  In total, 6536 patients with 242,183 days of veno-venous ECMO were reviewed. The overall survival to discharge rate after weaning from ECMO was 89.7% ( n  = 5861), and 10.3% ( n  = 675) of the patients died during hospitalization. The discharge location varied as follows: 33.7% ( n  = 1976) returned home, 23.4% ( n  = 1369) were transferred to a referral hospital, 41.8% ( n  = 2447) required hospital services, and 0.6% ( n  = 36) were discharged to other places. The patients were divided into two groups according to the discharge location: a complete recovery group ( n  = 1976) and a partial recovery group ( n  = 3885). In the multivariate analyses, age (≥ 65 years) (odds ratio (OR) 0.72, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.59–0.87,  p  = 0.001), cardiac arrest before ECMO (OR 0.76, 95% CI 0.60–0.96,  p  = 0.021), vasopressor use (OR 0.73, 95% CI 0.64–0.83,  p  < 0.001), renal replacement therapy (OR 0.40, 95% CI 0.28–0.57,  p  < 0.001), ECMO-related complications (OR 0.76, 95% CI 0.67–0.85,  p  < 0.001), and long-term ECMO support (≥ 2 weeks) (OR 0.42, 95% CI 0.37–0.48,  p  < 0.001) were significantly associated with complete recovery.    Conclusion  Complete recovery after veno-venous ECMO support is associated with the patient’s baseline condition, ECMO duration, and ECMO-related complications. Respiratory ECMO should aim to increase both the survival and the quality of life after weaning from ECMO.
