Fluid overload (FO), a state of pathologic positive cumulative fluid balance (CFB), is common in Pediatric Intensive Care Units (PICU) and associated with morbidity mortality. Because different PICUs may have unique needs, barriers, limitations to accurately report (FB) reduce FO, understanding the drivers FB needed. We hypothesize CFB >5% >10% within initial days PICU admission, but that reasons for high %CFB will vary across sites, as barriers accurate recording opportunities improve...
ABSTRACT Introduction Fluid overload (FO) due to excessive fluid administration in critically ill children is associated with worse pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) outcomes. Damage intravenous (IVF) production plants Hurricane Helene resulted a national IVF shortage, leading many hospitals implement conservation guidelines. We hypothesized that these guidelines would lead reduction use and decrease % cumulative balance (CFB). Methods Four-site cohort study of utilizing federated data...
Background: Artificial Intelligence (AI) through machine learning (ML) models appears to provide accurate and precise acute kidney injury (AKI) risk classification in some clinical settings, but their performance implementation real-world settings has not been established. Methods: PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, Scopus were searched until August 2023. Articles reporting on externally validated for prediction AKI onset, severity, post-AKI complications hospitalized adult pediatric patients...
Introduction Fluid accumulation, presently defined as a pathologic state of overhydration/volume overload associated with clinical impact, is common and worse outcomes. At times, deresuscitation, the active removal fluid via diuretics or ultrafiltration, necessary. There no consensus regarding deresuscitation in children admitted to pediatric intensive care unit. Little known perceptions practices among intensivists nephrologists provision deresuscitation. Methods Cross-sectional electronic...

Abstract Background Fluid balance gap (FBgap—prescribed vs. achieved) is associated with hospital mortality. Downtime an important quality indicator for the delivery of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). We examined association CRRT downtime FBgap and clinical outcomes including Methods This a retrospective cohort study critically ill adults receiving utilizing both electronic health records (EHR) machine data. was calculated as achieved minus prescribed fluid balance. Downtime, or...
