Background: The Institute of Medicine calls for the use clinical guidelines and practice parameters to promote "best practices" improve patient outcomes. Objective: 2007 update 2002 American College Critical Care Clinical Guidelines Hemodynamic Support Neonates Children with Septic Shock. Participants: Society members special interest in neonatal pediatric septic shock were identified from general solicitation at Educational Scientific Symposia (2001–2006). Methods: Pubmed/MEDLINE literature...
Anticholinergic medications such as ipratropium improve the pulmonary function of patients with acute exacerbations asthma, but their effect on hospitalization rates is uncertain.
Throughout this article, the reader will notice combinations of superscripted letters and numbers (eg, "Family Presence During Resuscitation Peds-003 ").These callouts are hyperlinked to evidence-based worksheets, which were used in development article.An appendix applicable is located at end text.The worksheets available PDF format open access.T he 2010 ILCOR Pediatric Task Force experts developed 55 questions related pediatric resuscitation.Topics selected based on 2005 Consensus Science...
Systolic blood pressure (SBP) and mean arterial (MAP) are essential evaluation elements in ill children, but there is wide variation among different sources defining systolic hypotension no normal reference values for MAP. Our goal was to calculate the 5th percentile SBP MAP children from recently updated data published by task force working group of National High Blood Pressure Education Program compare these with lowest limit acceptable defined sources.Mathematical analysis clinical...
Objective Prospective study of the efficacy calf lung surfactant extract in pediatric respiratory failure. Design Multi-institutional, prospective, randomized, controlled, unblinded trial. Setting Eight intensive care units (ICU) tertiary medical centers. Patients Forty-two children with acute hypoxemic failure characterized by diffuse, bilateral pulmonary infiltrates, need for ventilatory support, and an oxygenation index >or=to7. Intervention Instillation intratracheal (80 mL/m2)....
The 2010 ILCOR Pediatric Task Force experts developed 55 questions related to pediatric resuscitation. Topics were selected based on the 2005 Consensus Science and Treatment Recommendations (CoSTR) document,1,2 emerging science, newly identified issues. Not every topic reviewed for International was in evidence evaluation process. In general, evidence-based worksheets assigned at least 2 authors each topic. literature search strategy first by a “worksheet expert” completeness. expert also...
