Four major outcomes were considered: 1) major physical sequelae (defined as major scars and\/or orthopaedic sequelae) (29\/120), 2) mild neurological impairments (39\/120), 3) problem behaviour (defined as a total score above the 90<jats:sup>th<\/jats:sup> percentile of the reference groups on questionnaires to screen for psychopathology) (16\/114) and 4) total intelligence quotient &lt; 85 (18\/115). No differences were found between patients with major physical sequelae and patients without major physical sequelae as to the presence of problem behaviour or total IQ &lt; 85. Also, no differences were found between patients with mild neurological impairments and patients without as to the presence of problem behaviour or total IQ &lt; 85. Finally, no differences were found between patients with major physical sequelae and patients without as to the presence of mild neurological sequelae. Less favourable scores on behavioural and emotional problems were significantly associated with poorer health-related quality of life (HR-QoL). HR-QoL scores were to a lesser amount predicted by severity of illness at time of PICU admission or by adverse physical outcome.<\/jats:p>\n                     <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                        <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                        <jats:p>Long-term adverse physical and psychological outcomes in survivors of MSS did not seem to be associated.
