Abstract:Objective: To assess the impact of increasing positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) on hemodynamics, respiratory system mechanics, and oxygenation in children with pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (PARDS). Design: Prospective single-center study. Setting: Tertiary care, university-affiliated PICU. Patients: Mechanically ventilated children with PARDS. Interventions: PEEP was sequentially changed to 5, 12, 10, 8, and again to 5 cmH2O. After 10 minutes at each PEEP level, hemodynamic and respirato… Show more
