Brief Summary

Children who are critically ill often require large amounts of fluid during their acute illness. It has been shown in multiple studies that appropriate administration of fluid decreases morbidity and mortality, but giving too much fluid can also cause increased morbidity and mortality. It is often difficult to discern from physical exam, vital signs and labs if the amount of fluid that has been given is appropriate or if a pediatric patient requires more fluid. Pulse pressure variation (PPV) is the change in blood pressure when a patient is on a ventilator or breathing machine. PPV has been used in multiple adult studies to help predict fluid needs in a critically ill patient. In this study, we would like to investigate if PPV can help better predict if critically ill pediatric patients in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) need fluid. The investigators hope that by having the additional information that PPV can provide, physicians can more judiciously give fluid and thereby improve morbidity of critically ill patients in the PICU.

  • Number of Days in the PICU

    From pediatric ICU admission to pediatric ICU discharge (up to 149 days)

Study Arms (2)

Prospective

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients in this arm will have fluid given based on standard clinical data (blood pressure, heart rate, lactate level, urine output) in addition to information provided by automated pulse pressure variation (PPV). PPV will be followed for first 48 hours after recruitment to the study. Fluid (normal saline, albumin 5%, hetastarch per the clinician preference) will be given in 5cc/kg increments for PPV\> 13 (in addition to standard clinical data) until PPV \< 13.

Device: Automated Pulse Pressure Variation

Retrospective

NO INTERVENTION

Patients in this arm were previously admitted to the PICU and were given fluid based on standard clinical data. PPV was not used to guide therapy in this group of patients.

Interventions

Based on standard of care, the physician will give fluid as needed based on standard clinical data (heart rate, central venous pressure if available, blood pressure, urine output, physical exam, lactate level) and pulse pressure variation. PPV should be elevated consistently greater than 15 minutes before giving fluid without other symptoms of patient instability (low blood pressure, elevated lactate, tachycardia). Pulse pressure variation will be followed for 48 hours.
