Brief Summary

Mortality rates in children with pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (PARDS) are higher in Asia compared to other regions. In adults with acute respiratory distress syndrome, the only therapy that improves mortality rates is a lung protective ventilation strategy. The pediatric ventilation recommendations are extrapolated from evidence in adults, including ventilation with low tidal volume, low peak/plateau pressures and high-end expiratory pressure. A recent retrospective study of ventilation practices in Asia showed varying practices with regards to pulmonary and non-pulmonary therapies, including ventilation. This study aims to determine the prevalence and outcomes of PARDS in the Pediatric Acute and Critical Care Medicine Asian Network (PACCMAN). This study will also determine the use of pulmonary (mechanical ventilation, steroids, neuromuscular blockade, surfactant, pulmonary vasodilators, prone positioning) and non-pulmonary (nutrition, sedation, fluid management, transfusion) PARDS therapies. To achieve this aim, a prospective observational study which involves systematic screening of all pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) admissions and collection of pertinent clinical data will be conducted. Recruitment will be consecutive and follow up will continue to intensive care discharge.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Prevalence of PARDS

    Number of participants diagnosed with PARDS over number of intensive care admissions

    Through study completion

  • Mortality

    Number of PARDS participants who died over number of participants diagnosed with PARDS

    up to 60 days

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Ventilator free days

    up to 28 days

  • Intensive Care Unit free days

    up to 28 days

  • Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

    up to 28 days

Other Outcomes (2)

  • Composite mortality and ECMO

    up to 60 days

  • Sensitivity analysis

    up to 60 days

Interventions

An evidence based ventilation protocol will be implemented at participating sites. This will include limits on peak inspiratory pressure (28cmH2O), driving pressure (16cmH2O), tidal volume (mild 8ml/kg, mod/severe 6ml/kg), positive end expiratory pressure to fraction of inspired oxygen table, permissive hypercarbia (mild allow pH 7.30, mod/severe allow pH 7.20) and permissive hypoxia (mild SpO2 92-97%, mod/severe SpO2 88-92%).

Eligibility Criteria

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

All PICU admission will be screened daily and those who meet the PALICC criteria for PARDS will be recruited and consented (if necessary). We will include those on non-invasive ventilation and alternative modes of ventilation. However, a minimum positive end expiratory pressure of 5cmH2O is necessary for inclusion, as per PALICC. Patients with any type of cardiorespiratory comorbidity will also be included if they fulfill the PALICC criteria for special populations (cyanotic heart disease, chronic lung disease and left ventricular failure). Patients who have limitation of care (i.e. do-not-resuscitate orders) or develop brainstem death will also be included to enable calculation of prevalence.

You may qualify if:

  • Satisfies the Pediatric Acute Lung Injury Consensus Conference (PALICC) criteria for PARDS

You may not qualify if:

  • Premature neonates with a corrected age of less than 33 weeks and perinatal lung disease
  • High flow nasal cannula
