Trial Information

Practice of Mechanical Ventilation in Pediatric Oncologic Patients Diagnosed With Acute Lung Injury / Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome


Evaluate adequate mechanical ventilation based on protective ventilation protocols for
children available so far.

Evaluate and describe the subjects. Evaluate the necessity and outcome of rescue therapies
(surfactant, prone position, corticosteroids, alveolar recruitment) Obtain data about
ALI/ARDS' etiology, mortality rates and predictive factors related to the outcomes (PICU/
hospital discharge or death)


Inclusion Criteria:



- patients admitted at the intensive care unit with diagnosis of acute lung injury or
acute respiratory distress syndrome and submitted to mechanical ventilation for over
24h

Exclusion Criteria:

- mechanical ventilation less than 24h

- absence of ALI/ARDS criteria

- no neoplasm diagnosis

Type of Study:

Observational

Study Design:

Observational Model: Case-Only, Time Perspective: Prospective

Outcome Measure:

Identify pediatric oncologic patients with ALI/ARDS at GRAACC's PICU and evaluate how they are mechanically ventilated

Outcome Time Frame:

2y

Safety Issue:

No
