Actual (reported)This observational study aims to determine whether an AI-assisted decision support system can improve clinical outcomes for mechanically ventilated pediatric patients (aged 1 month to 18 years) in the PICU, compared to standard care provided by medical staff. The primary question addressed is: Do patients whose ventilator parameter optimization decisions are guided by AI assistance achieve a greater number of ventilator-free days within 28 days than those managed by medical staff? By utilizing clinical data collected following tracheal intubation to generate AI-driven recommendations-and comparing these against the actual adjustments made by physicians-this study seeks to assess whether the AI-assisted decision support system can effectively improve clinical outcomes for mechanically ventilated patients in the PICU.

Actual (reported)Number of ventilator-free days within 28 days
Days survived and free from invasive ventilation
From the start of tracheal intubation until 28 days after tracheal intubation.
mortality rate
28 and 90 days after the initiation of tracheal intubation
Mechanical Ventilation-Related Complications
From the start of tracheal intubation to Day 28
Clinical data from key time points following tracheal intubation in each pediatric patient were input into an AI system to generate recommendations. These recommendations were then compared against the actual adjustments made by physicians, enabling a counterfactual assessment to determine whether-had the AI's suggestions been adopted-the number of ventilator-free days within a 28-day period would have been superior.
Pediatric patients aged 1 month to 18 years admitted to the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University and Yuying Children's Hospital, who are receiving mechanical ventilation.
