Objectives: Extubation failure (EF) in neonates recovering from congenital cardiac surgery is associated with morbidity and mortality. Adding continuous physiologic monitoring data risk analytics algorithms to clinical factors has the potential assist clinicians identifying those at high for EF. We aimed evaluate association of two evaluating probability inadequate delivery oxygen index (ID o 2 ) ventilation carbon dioxide (IV co EF receiving mechanical (MV) after surgery. A secondary aim...
OBJECTIVES: Extubation failure is associated with morbidity and mortality in children following cardiac surgery. Current extubation readiness tests (ERT) do not consider the nonrespiratory support provided by mechanical ventilation (MV) for congenital heart disease. We aimed to identify factors surgery assess performance of two risk analytics algorithms patients undergoing an ERT. DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study. SETTING: CICU at a tertiary-care children’s hospital. PATIENTS: Children...
Background and objectives Despite the increasing prevalence of childhood kidney disease worldwide, there is a shortage clinicians trained to provide peritoneal dialysis (PD). E-learning technologies may solution improve knowledge in PD. We describe development virtual PD simulator report first 22 months online usage. Design, setting, participants, & measurements The was developed released on OPENPediatrics January 2016. A prospective study international, multidisciplinary healthcare...
Objectives: There is an increased mortality risk in critically ill children who require renal replacement therapy for acute kidney injury and fluid overload. Nevertheless, essential managing these patients. The objective of this study was to identify factors requiring therapy. Design: Single-center, retrospective cohort analysis. Setting: Tertiary care children’s hospital. Patients: All patients admitted ICU at Boston Children’s Hospital from January 2009 December 2017 required any form...

Introduction: Vocal cord dysfunction (VCD) is a common complication following congenital cardiac surgery. VCD more frequently diagnosed in aortic arch repairs due to the risk of recurrent laryngeal nerve injury. We previously identified as key variable feeding leading increased resource utilization children with heart The current diagnostic identify Fiberoptic Endoscopy (FOE), however, Cord Ultrasound (VCUS) has been described screening tool high-risk populations. describe performance VCUS...
