Abstract
OBJECTIVE Oxygen has been used liberally in ICUs for a long time to prevent hypoxia in ICU- patients. Current evidence suggests that paO2 >300 mmHg should be avoided, it remains uncertain whether an "optimal level" exists. We investigated how "mild" hyperoxia influences diseases and in-hospital mortality. DESIGN This is a retrospective study. SETTING 112 mechanically ventilated ICU-patients were enrolled. PATIENTS OR PARTICIPANTS 112 ventilated patients were included and categorized into two groups based on the median paO2 values measured in initial 24 h of mechanical ventilation: normoxia group (paO2 ≤ 100 mmHg, n = 43) and hyperoxia group patients (paO2 > 100 mmHg, n = 69). INTERVENTIONS No interventions were performed. MAIN VARIABLES OF INTEREST The primary outcome was the incidence of pulmonary events, the secondary outcomes included the incidence of other new organ dysfunctions and in-hospital mortality. RESULTS The baseline characteristics, such as age, body mass index, lactate levels, and severity of disease scores, were similar in both groups. There were no statistically significant differences in the incidence of pulmonary events, infections, and new organ dysfunctions between the groups. 27 out of 69 patients (39.1%) in the "mild" hyperoxia group and 12 out of 43 patients (27.9%) in the normoxia group died during their ICU or hospital stay (p = 0.54). The mean APACHE Score was 29.4 (SD 7.9) in the normoxia group and 30.0 (SD 6.7) in the hyperoxia group (p = 0.62). CONCLUSIONS We found no differences in pulmonary events, other coded diseases, and in-hospital mortality between both groups. It remains still unclear what the "best oxygen regime" is for intensive care patients.

Abstract
Background The aim of this study is the evaluation of a closed-loop oxygen control system in pediatric patients undergoing invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV). Methods Cross-over, multicenter, randomized, single-blind clinical trial. Patients between the ages of 1 month and 18 years who were undergoing IMV therapy for acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF) were assigned at random to either begin with a 2-hour period of closed-loop oxygen control or manual oxygen titrations. By using closed-loop oxygen control, the patients' SpO2 levels were maintained within a predetermined target range by the automated adjustment of the FiO2. During the manual oxygen titration phase of the trial, healthcare professionals at the bedside made manual changes to the FiO2, while maintaining the same target range for SpO2. Following either period, the patient transitioned to the alternative therapy. The outcomes were the percentage of time spent in predefined SpO2 ranges ±2% (primary), FiO2, total oxygen use, and the number of manual adjustments. Findings The median age of included 33 patients was 17 (13-55.5) months. In contrast to manual oxygen titrations, patients spent a greater proportion of time within a predefined optimal SpO2 range when the closed-loop oxygen controller was enabled (95.7% [IQR 92.1-100%] vs. 65.6% [IQR 41.6-82.5%]), mean difference 33.4% [95%-CI 24.5-42%]; P < 0.001). Median FiO2 was lower (32.1% [IQR 23.9-54.1%] vs. 40.6% [IQR 31.1-62.8%]; P < 0.001) similar to total oxygen use (19.8 L/h [IQR 4.6-64.8] vs. 39.4 L/h [IQR 16.8-79]; P < 0.001); however, median SpO2/FiO2 was higher (329.4 [IQR 180-411.1] vs. 246.7 [IQR 151.1-320.5]; P < 0.001) with closed-loop oxygen control. With closed-loop oxygen control, the median number of manual adjustments reduced (0.0 [IQR 0.0-0.0] vs. 1 [IQR 0.0-2.2]; P < 0.001). Conclusion Closed-loop oxygen control enhances oxygen therapy in pediatric patients undergoing IMV for AHRF, potentially leading to more efficient utilization of oxygen. This technology also decreases the necessity for manual adjustments, which could reduce the workloads of healthcare providers. Clinical Trial Registration This research has been submitted to ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT05714527).

Abstract
Objective Our aim was to confirm whether extreme hyperoxemic events had been associated with excess mortality in our diverse critical care population. Methods Retrospective analysis of 9 years of data collected in the pediatric and cardiothoracic ICUs in Children's Hospital Los Angeles was performed. The analysis was limited to those mechanically ventilated for at least 24 h, with at least 1 arterial blood gas measurement. An extreme hyperoxemic event was defined as a PaO2 of ≥300 torr. Multivariable logistic regression was used to assess the association of extreme hyperoxemia events and mortality, adjusting for confounding variables. Selected a-priori, these were Pediatric Risk of Mortality III predicted mortality, general or cardiothoracic ICU, number of blood gas measurements, as well as an abnormal blood gas measurements (pH < 7.25, pH > 7.45, and PaO2 < 50 torr). Results There were 4,003 admissions included with a predicted mortality of 7.1% and an actual mortality of 9.7%. Their care was associated with 75,129 blood gas measurements, in which abnormal measurements were common. With adjustments for these covariates, any hyperoxemic event was associated with excess mortality (p < 0.001). Excess mortality increased with multiple hyperoxemic events (p < 0.046). Additionally, treatment resulting in SpO2 > 98% markedly increased the risk of a hyperoxemic event. Conclusion Retrospective analysis of critical care admissions showed that extreme hyperoxemic events were associated with higher mortality. Supplemental oxygen levels resulting in SpO2 > 98% should be avoided.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE ICU delirium commonly complicates critical illness associated with factors such as cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) time and the requirement of mechanical ventilation (MV). Recent reports associate hyperoxia with poorer outcomes in critically ill children. This study sought to determine whether hyperoxia on CPB in pediatric patients was associated with a higher prevalence of postoperative delirium. DESIGN Secondary analysis of data obtained from a prospective cohort study. SETTING Twenty-two-bed pediatric cardiac ICU in a tertiary children's hospital. PATIENTS All patients (18 yr old or older) admitted post-CPB, with documented delirium assessment scores using the Preschool/Pediatric Confusion Assessment Method for the ICU and who were enrolled in the Precision Medicine in Pediatric Cardiology Cohort from February 2021 to November 2021. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Of 148 patients, who underwent cardiac surgery, 35 had delirium within the first 72 hours (24%). There was no association between hyperoxia on CPB and postoperative delirium for all definitions of hyperoxia, including hyperoxic area under the curve above 5 predetermined Pao2 levels: 150 mm Hg (odds ratio [95% CI]: 1.176 [0.605-2.286], p = 0.633); 175 mm Hg (OR 1.177 [95% CI, 0.668-2.075], p = 0.572); 200 mm Hg (OR 1.235 [95% CI, 0.752-2.026], p = 0.405); 250 mm Hg (OR 1.204 [95% CI, 0.859-1.688], p = 0.281), 300 mm Hg (OR 1.178 [95% CI, 0.918-1.511], p = 0.199). In an additional exploratory analysis, comparing patients with delirium within 72 hours versus those without, only the z score for weight differed (mean [sd]: 0.09 [1.41] vs. -0.48 [1.82], p < 0.05). When comparing patients who developed delirium at any point during their ICU stay (n = 45, 30%), MV days, severity of illness (Pediatric Index of Mortality 3 Score) score, CPB time, and z score for weight were associated with delirium (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Postoperative delirium (72 hr from CPB) occurred in 24% of pediatric patients. Hyperoxia, defined in multiple ways, was not associated with delirium. On exploratory analysis, nutritional status (z score for weight) may be a significant factor in delirium risk. Further delineation of risk factors for postoperative delirium versus ICU delirium warrants additional study.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Extracorporeal life support can lead to rapid reversal of hypoxemia but the benefits and harms of different oxygenation targets in severely ill patients are unclear. Our primary objective was to investigate the association between the Pa o2 after extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) initiation and mortality in neonates treated for respiratory failure. DESIGN Retrospective analysis of the Extracorporeal Life Support Organization (ELSO) Registry data, 2015-2020. PATIENTS Newborns supported by ECMO for respiratory indication were included. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Pa o2 24 hours after ECMO initiation (H24 Pa o2 ) was reported. The primary outcome was 28-day mortality. We identified 3533 newborns (median age 1 d [interquartile range (IQR), 1-3]; median weight 3.2 kg [IQR, 2.8-3.6]) from 198 ELSO centers, who were placed on ECMO. By 28 days of life, 731 (20.7%) had died. The median H24 Pa o2 was 85 mm Hg (IQR, 60-142). We found that both hypoxia (Pa o2 < 60 mm Hg) and moderate hyperoxia (Pa o2 201-300 mm Hg) were associated with greater adjusted odds ratio (aOR [95% CI]) of 28-day mortality, respectively: aOR 1.44 (95% CI, 1.08-1.93), p = 0.016, and aOR 1.49 (95% CI, 1.01-2.19), p value equals to 0.045. CONCLUSIONS Early hypoxia or moderate hyperoxia after ECMO initiation are each associated with greater odds of 28-day mortality among neonates requiring ECMO for respiratory failure.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVE Protocols are used in intensive care and emergency settings to limit the use of oxygen. However, in pediatric anesthesiology, such protocols do not exist. This study aimed to investigate the administration of oxygen during pediatric general anesthesia and related these values to PaO2, SpO2 and SaO2. DESIGN Retrospective observational study. SETTING Tertiary pediatric academic hospital, from June 2017 to August 2020. PATIENTS Patients aged 0-18 years who underwent general anesthesia for a diagnostic or surgical procedure with tracheal intubation and an arterial catheter for regular blood withdrawal were included. Patients on cardiopulmonary bypass or those with missing data were excluded. Electronic charts were reviewed for patient characteristics, type of surgery, arterial blood gas analyses, and oxygenation management. INTERVENTIONS No interventions were done. MEASUREMENTS Primary outcome defined as FiO2, PaO2 and SpO2 values were interpreted using descriptive analyses, and the correlation between PaO2 and FiO2 was determined using the weighted Spearman correlation coefficient. MAIN RESULTS Data of 493 cases were obtained. Of these, 267 were excluded for various reasons. Finally, 226 cases with a total of 645 samples were analyzed. The median FiO2 was 36% (IQR 31 to 43), with a range from 20% to 97%, and the median PaO2 was 23.6 kPa (IQR 18.6 to 28.1); 177 mmHg (IQR 140 to 211). The median SpO2 level was 99% (IQR 98 to 100%). The study showed a moderately positive association between PaO2 and FiO2 (r = 0.52, p < 0.001). 574 of 645 samples (89%) contained a PaO2 higher than 13.3 kPa; 100 mmHg. CONCLUSIONS Oxygen administration during general pediatric anesthesia is barely regulated. Hyperoxemia is observed intraoperatively in approximately 90% of cases. Future research should focus on outcomes related to hyperoxemia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Oxygen therapy is an alternative for many patients with hypoxemia. However, this practice can be dangerous as oxygen is closely associated with the development of oxidative stress. METHODS Male Wistar rats were exposed to hyperoxia with a 40% fraction of inspired oxygen (FIO2) and hyperoxia (FIO2 = 60%) for 120 min. Blood and lung tissue samples were collected for gas, oxidative stress, and inflammatory analyses. RESULTS Hyperoxia (FIO2 = 60%) increased PaCO2 and PaO2, decreased blood pH and caused thrombocytopenia and lymphocytosis. In lung tissue, neutrophil infiltration, nitric oxide concentration, carbonyl protein formation and the activity of complexes I and II of the mitochondrial respiratory chain increased. FIO2 = 60% decreased SOD activity and caused several histologic changes. CONCLUSION In conclusion, we have experimentally demonstrated that short-term exposure to high FIO2 can cause oxidative stress in the lung.

Abstract
Background Bubble continuous positive airway pressure (bCPAP) is used in resource-limited settings for children with respiratory distress. Low-cost modifications of bCPAP use 100% oxygen and may cause morbidity from oxygen toxicity. We sought to test a novel constructible low-cost entrainment syringe system (LESS) oxygen blender with low-cost modified bCPAP in a relevant clinical setting. Methods We conducted a clinical trial evaluating safety of the LESS O2 blender among hospitalized children under five years old in rural Cambodia evaluating the rate of clinical failure within one hour of initiation of the LESS O2 blender and monitoring for any other blender-related complications. Findings Thirty-two patients were included. The primary outcome (clinical failure) occurred in one patient (3.1%, 95% CI = 0.1-16.2%). Clinical failure was defined as intubation, death, transfer to another hospital, or two of the following: oxygen saturation <85% after 30 min of treatment; new signs of respiratory distress; or partial pressure of carbon dioxide ≥60 mmHg and pH <7.2 on a capillary blood gas. Secondary outcomes included average generated FiO2's with blender use, which were 59% and 52% when a 5 mm entrainment was used vs. a 10 mm entrainment port with 5-7 cm H2O of CPAP and 1-7 L/min (LPM) of flow; and adverse events including loss of CPAP bubbling (64% of all adverse events), frequency of repair or adjustment (44%), replacement (25%), and median time of respiratory support (44 h). Interpretation Overall the LESS O2 blender was safe for clinical use. The design could be modified for improved performance including less repair needs and improved nasal interface, which requires modification for the blender to function more consistently.

Conservative versus liberal oxygenation targets in critically ill children (Oxy-PICU): a UK multicentre, open, parallel-group, randomised clinical trial. Lancet 2024; 403:355-364. [PMID: 38048787 DOI: 10.1016/s0140-6736(23)01968-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 16.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/22/2023] [Revised: 09/10/2023] [Accepted: 09/14/2023] [Indexed: 12/06/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The optimal target for systemic oxygenation in critically ill children is unknown. Liberal oxygenation is widely practiced, but has been associated with harm in paediatric patients. We aimed to evaluate whether conservative oxygenation would reduce duration of organ support or incidence of death compared to standard care. METHODS Oxy-PICU was a pragmatic, multicentre, open-label, randomised controlled trial in 15 UK paediatric intensive care units (PICUs). Children admitted as an emergency, who were older than 38 weeks corrected gestational age and younger than 16 years receiving invasive ventilation and supplemental oxygen were randomly allocated in a 1:1 ratio via a concealed, central, web-based randomisation system to conservative peripheral oxygen saturations ([SpO2] 88-92%) or liberal (SpO2 >94%) targets. The primary outcome was the duration of organ support at 30 days following random allocation, a rank-based endpoint with death either on or before day 30 as the worst outcome (a score equating to 31 days of organ support), with survivors assigned a score between 1 and 30 depending on the number of calendar days of organ support received. The primary effect estimate was the probabilistic index, a value greater than 0·5 indicating more than 50% probability that conservative oxygenation is superior to liberal oxygenation for a randomly selected patient. All participants in whom consent was available were included in the intention-to-treat analysis. The completed study was registered with the ISRCTN registry (ISRCTN92103439). FINDINGS Between Sept 1, 2020, and May 15, 2022, 2040 children were randomly allocated to conservative or liberal oxygenation groups. Consent was available for 1872 (92%) of 2040 children. The conservative oxygenation group comprised 939 children (528 [57%] of 927 were female and 399 [43%] of 927 were male) and the liberal oxygenation group included 933 children (511 [56%] of 920 were female and 409 [45%] of 920 were male). Duration of organ support or death in the first 30 days was significantly lower in the conservative oxygenation group (probabilistic index 0·53, 95% CI 0·50-0·55; p=0·04 Wilcoxon rank-sum test, adjusted odds ratio 0·84 [95% CI 0·72-0·99]). Prespecified adverse events were reported in 24 (3%) of 939 patients in the conservative oxygenation group and 36 (4%) of 933 patients in the liberal oxygenation group. INTERPRETATION Among invasively ventilated children who were admitted as an emergency to a PICU receiving supplemental oxygen, a conservative oxygenation target resulted in a small, but significant, greater probability of a better outcome in terms of duration of organ support at 30 days or death when compared with a liberal oxygenation target. Widespread adoption of a conservative oxygenation saturation target (SpO2 88-92%) could help improve outcomes and reduce costs for the sickest children admitted to PICUs.

Exposure to severe hyperoxemia worsens survival and neurological outcome in patients supported by veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation: A meta-analysis. Resuscitation 2024; 194:110071. [PMID: 38061577 DOI: 10.1016/j.resuscitation.2023.110071] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/21/2023] [Revised: 11/14/2023] [Accepted: 11/16/2023] [Indexed: 01/16/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Veno-arterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (VA-ECMO) is a rescue treatment in refractory cardiogenic shock (CS) or refractory cardiac arrest (CA). Exposure to hyperoxemia is common during VA-ECMO, and its impact on patient's outcome remains unclear. METHODS We conducted a systematic review (PubMed and Scopus) and meta-analysis investigating the effects of exposure to severe hyperoxemia on mortality and poor neurological outcome in patients supported by VA-ECMO. When both adjusted and unadjusted Odds Ratio (OR) were provided, we used the adjusted one. Results are reported as OR and 95% confidence interval (CI). Subgroup analyses were conducted according to VA-ECMO indication and hyperoxemia thresholds. RESULTS Data from 10 observational studies were included. Nine studies reported data on mortality (n = 5 refractory CA, n = 4 CS), and 4 on neurological outcome. As compared to normal oxygenation levels, exposure to severe hyperoxemia was associated with higher mortality (nine studies; OR: 1.80 [1.16-2.78]; p = 0.009; I2 = 83%; low certainty of evidence) and worse neurological outcome (four studies; OR: 1.97 [1.30-2.96]; p = 0.001; I2 = 0%; low certainty of evidence). Magnitude and effect of these findings remained valid in subgroup analyses conducted according to different hyperoxemia thresholds (>200 or >300 mmHg) and VA-ECMO indication, although the association with mortality remained uncertain in the refractory CA population (p = 0.13). Analysis restricted to studies providing adjusted OR data confirmed an increased likelihood of poorer neurological outcome (three studies; OR: 2.11 [1.32-3.38]; p = 0.002) in patients exposed to severe hyperoxemia but did not suggest higher mortality (five studies; OR: 1.68 [0.89-3.18]; p = 0.11). CONCLUSIONS Severe hyperoxemia exposure after initiation of VA-ECMO may be associated with an almost doubled increased probability of poor neurological outcome and mortality. Clinical efforts should be made to avoid severe hyperoxemia during VA-ECMO support.

Abstract
Recent studies have suggested worse outcomes in patients exposed to hyperoxia while supported on veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO). However, there are no data regarding the effect of reducing hyperoxia exposure in this population by adjusting the fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) of the sweep gas of the ECMO circuit. A retrospective review of 143 patients less than 1 year of age requiring VA-ECMO following cardiac surgery from 2007 to 2018 was completed. 64 patients had a FiO2 of the sweep gas < 100% with an average PaO2 of 210 mm Hg in the first 48 h of support [vs 405 mm Hg in the group with a FiO2 = 100% (p < 0.0001)]. There was no difference in mortality at 30 days after surgery or other markers of end-organ injury with respect to whether the FiO2 was adjusted. At least one PaO2 value < 200 mm Hg in the first 24 h on ECMO in patients with a FiO2 < 100% trended toward a significant association (OR = 0.45, 95% CI = 0.21-1.01) with decreased risk of 30-day mortality when compared to those patients with a FiO2 = 100% and all PaO2 values > 200 mm Hg. Only 47% of patients with a FiO2 < 100% had an average PaO2 less than 200 mm Hg which indicates that the intervention of reducing the FiO2 of the sweep gas was not entirely effective at reducing hyperoxia exposure. Future research is needed for developing clinical protocols to avoid hyperoxia and to identify mechanisms for hyperoxia-induced injury on VA-ECMO.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES "Cumulative excess oxygen exposure" (CEOE)-previously defined as the mean hourly administered Fio2 above 0.21 when the corresponding hourly Spo2 was 95% or above-was previously shown to be associated with mortality. The objective of this study was to examine the relationship among Fio2, Spo2, and mortality in an independent cohort of mechanically ventilated children. DESIGN Retrospective cross-sectional study. SETTING Quaternary-care PICU. PATIENTS All patients admitted to the PICU between 2012 and 2021 and mechanically ventilated via endotracheal tube for at least 24 hours. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Among 3,354 patients, 260 (8%) died. Higher CEOE quartile was associated with increased mortality (p = 0.001). The highest CEOE quartile had an 87% increased risk of mortality (95% CI, 7-236) compared with the first CEOE quartile. The hazard ratio for extended CEOE exposure, which included mechanical ventilation data from throughout the patients' mechanical ventilation time rather than only from the first 24 hours of mechanical ventilation, was 1.03 (95% CI, 1.02-1.03). CONCLUSIONS Potentially excess oxygen exposure in patients whose oxygen saturation was at least 95% was associated with increased mortality.

Abstract
Acute neurologic injuries represent a common cause of morbidity and mortality in children presenting to the pediatric intensive care unit. After primary neurologic insults, there may be cerebral brain tissue that remains at risk of secondary insults, which can lead to worsening neurologic injury and unfavorable outcomes. A fundamental goal of pediatric neurocritical care is to mitigate the impact of secondary neurologic injury and improve neurologic outcomes for critically ill children. This review describes the physiologic framework by which strategies in pediatric neurocritical care are designed to reduce the impact of secondary brain injury and improve functional outcomes. Here, we present current and emerging strategies for optimizing neuroprotective strategies in critically ill children.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Many interventions in bronchiolitis are low-value or poorly studied. Inpatient bronchiolitis management is multidisciplinary, with varying degrees of registered nurse (RN) and respiratory therapist (RT) autonomy. Understanding the perceived benefit of interventions for frontline health care personnel may facilitate deimplementation efforts. Our objective was to examine perceptions surrounding the benefit of common inpatient bronchiolitis interventions. METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional survey of inpatient pediatric RNs, RTs, and physicians/licensed practitioners (P/LPs) (eg, advanced-practice practitioners) from May to December of 2021 at 9 university-affiliated and 2 community hospitals. A clinical vignette preceded a series of inpatient bronchiolitis management questions. RESULTS A total of 331 surveys were analyzed with a completion rate of 71.9%: 76.5% for RNs, 57.4% for RTs, and 71.2% for P/LPs. Approximately 54% of RNs and 45% of RTs compared with 2% of P/LPs believe albuterol would be "extremely or somewhat likely" to improve work of breathing (P < .001). Similarly, 52% of RNs, 32% of RTs, and 23% of P/LPs thought initiating or escalating oxygen in the absence of hypoxemia was likely to improve work of breathing (P < .001). Similar differences in perceived benefit were observed for steroids, nebulized hypertonic saline, and deep suctioning, but not superficial nasal suctioning. Hospital type (community versus university-affiliated) did not impact the magnitude of these differences. CONCLUSIONS Variation exists in the perceived benefit of several low-value or poorly studied bronchiolitis interventions among health care personnel, with RNs/RTs generally perceiving higher benefit. Deimplementation, educational, and quality improvement efforts should be designed with an interprofessional framework.

Abstract
Adults and children who require extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for respiratory failure remain at risk for ongoing lung injury if ventilator management is not optimized. This review serves as a guide to assist the bedside clinician in ventilator titration for patients on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, with a focus on lung-protective strategies. Existing data and guidelines for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation ventilator management are reviewed, including non-conventional ventilation modes and adjunct therapies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Evaluate the relationship between admission Pao2 and mortality in a large multicenter dataset and among diagnostic subgroups. DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. SETTING North American PICUs participating in Virtual Pediatric Systems, LLC (VPS), 2015-2019. PATIENTS Noncardiac patients 18 years or younger admitted to a VPS PICU with admission Pao2. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Thirteen thousand seventy-one patient encounters were included with an overall mortality of 13.52%. Age categories were equally distributed among survivors and nonsurvivors with the exception of small differences among neonates and adolescents. Importantly, there was a tightly fitting quadratic relationship between admission Pao2 and mortality, with the highest mortality rates seen among hypoxemic and hyperoxemic patients (likelihood-ratio test p < 0.001). This relationship persisted after adjustment for illness severity using modified Pediatric Index of Mortality 3 scores. A similar U-shaped relationship was demonstrated among patients with diagnoses of trauma, head trauma, sepsis, renal failure, hemorrhagic shock, and drowning. However, among the 1,500 patients admitted following cardiac arrest, there was no clear relationship between admission Pao2 and mortality. CONCLUSIONS In a large multicenter pediatric cohort, admission Pao2 demonstrates a tightly fitting quadratic relationship with mortality. The persistence of this relationship among some but not all diagnostic subgroups suggests the pathophysiology of certain disease states may modify the hyperoxemia association.

Impact of Hyperoxia after Graft Reperfusion on Lactate Level and Outcomes in Adults Undergoing Orthotopic Liver Transplantation. J Clin Med 2023; 12:jcm12082940. [PMID: 37109276 PMCID: PMC10145037 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12082940] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/05/2023] [Revised: 04/06/2023] [Accepted: 04/13/2023] [Indexed: 04/29/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Hyperoxia is common during liver transplantation (LT), without being supported by any guidelines. Recent studies have shown the potential deleterious effect of hyperoxia in similar models of ischemia-reperfusion. Hyperoxia after graft reperfusion during orthotopic LT could increase lactate levels and worsen patient outcomes. METHODS We conducted a retrospective and monocentric pilot study. All adult patients who underwent LT from 26 July 2013 to 26 December 2017 were considered for inclusion. Patients were classified into two groups according to oxygen levels before graft reperfusion: the hyperoxic group (PaO2 > 200 mmHg) and the nonhyperoxic group (PaO2 < 200 mmHg). The primary endpoint was arterial lactatemia 15 min after graft revascularization. Secondary endpoints included postoperative clinical outcomes and laboratory data. RESULTS A total of 222 liver transplant recipients were included. Arterial lactatemia after graft revascularization was significantly higher in the hyperoxic group (6.03 ± 4 mmol/L) than in the nonhyperoxic group (4.81 ± 2 mmol/L), p < 0.01. The postoperative hepatic cytolysis peak, duration of mechanical ventilation and duration of ileus were significantly increased in the hyperoxic group. CONCLUSIONS In the hyperoxic group, the arterial lactatemia, the hepatic cytolysis peak, the mechanical ventilation and the postoperative ileus were higher than in the nonhyperoxic group, suggesting that hyperoxia worsens short-term outcomes and could lead to increase ischemia-reperfusion injury after liver transplantation. A multicenter prospective study should be performed to confirm these results.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To provide evidence for the Second Pediatric Acute Lung Injury Consensus Conference updated recommendations and consensus statements for clinical practice and future research on invasive mechanical ventilation support of patients with pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (PARDS). DATA SOURCES MEDLINE (Ovid), Embase (Elsevier), and CINAHL Complete (EBSCOhost). STUDY SELECTION We included clinical studies of critically ill patients undergoing invasive mechanical ventilation for PARDS, January 2013 to April 2022. In addition, meta-analyses and systematic reviews focused on the adult acute respiratory distress syndrome population were included to explore new relevant concepts (e.g., mechanical power, driving pressure, etc.) still underrepresented in the contemporary pediatric literature. DATA EXTRACTION Title/abstract review, full text review, and data extraction using a standardized data collection form. DATA SYNTHESIS The Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation approach was used to identify and summarize relevant evidence and develop recommendations, good practice statements and research statements. We identified 26 pediatric studies for inclusion and 36 meta-analyses or systematic reviews in adults. We generated 12 recommendations, two research statements, and five good practice statements related to modes of ventilation, tidal volume, ventilation pressures, lung-protective ventilation bundles, driving pressure, mechanical power, recruitment maneuvers, prone positioning, and high-frequency ventilation. Only one recommendation, related to use of positive end-expiratory pressure, is classified as strong, with moderate certainty of evidence. CONCLUSIONS Limited pediatric data exist to make definitive recommendations for the management of invasive mechanical ventilation for patients with PARDS. Ongoing research is needed to better understand how to guide best practices and improve outcomes for patients with PARDS requiring invasive mechanical ventilation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Oxygen supplementation is a cornerstone treatment in critically ill children with bronchiolitis in the PICU. However, potential deleterious effects of high-dose oxygen are well-known. In this study, we aim to describe the pulmonary (local) and arterial (systemic) oxygen exposure over the duration of invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) in children with severe bronchiolitis. Our secondary aim was to estimate potentially avoidable exposure to high-dose oxygen in these patients. DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. SETTING Single-center, tertiary-care PICU. PATIENTS Children younger than 2 years old admitted to the PICU for severe bronchiolitis receiving IMV. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Hourly measurements of Fio2 and peripheral oxygen saturation (Spo2), and arterial blood gas data were collected up to day 10 of IMV. A total of 24,451 hours of IMV were observed in 176 patients (median age of 1.0 mo [interquartile range (IQR), 1.0-2.3 mo]). The pulmonary exposure to oxygen was highest during the first day of IMV (median time-weighted average [TWA]-Fio2 0.46 [IQR, 0.39-0.53]), which significantly decreased over subsequent days. The systemic exposure to oxygen was relatively low, as severe hyperoxemia (TWA-Pao2 > 248 Torr [> 33 kPa]) was not observed. However, overuse of oxygen was common with 52.3% of patients (n = 92) having at least 1 day of possible excessive oxygen exposure and 14.8% (n = 26) with severe exposure. Furthermore, higher oxygen dosages correlated with increasing overuse of oxygen (rrepeated measures, 0.59; 95% CI, 0.54-0.63). Additionally, caregivers were likely to keep Fio2 greater than or equal to 0.50 when Spo2 greater than or equal to 97%. CONCLUSIONS Moderate to high-dose pulmonary oxygen exposure and potential overuse of oxygen were common in this cohort of severe bronchiolitis patients requiring IMV; however, this was not accompanied by a high systemic oxygen burden. Further studies are needed to determine optimal oxygenation targets to prevent overzealous use of oxygen in this vulnerable population.

Temporal Patterns in Brain Tissue and Systemic Oxygenation Associated with Mortality After Severe Traumatic Brain Injury in Children. Neurocrit Care 2023; 38:71-84. [PMID: 36171518 PMCID: PMC9957965 DOI: 10.1007/s12028-022-01602-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2022] [Accepted: 08/30/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Brain tissue hypoxia is an independent risk factor for unfavorable outcomes in traumatic brain injury (TBI); however, systemic hyperoxemia encountered in the prevention and/or response to brain tissue hypoxia may also impact risk of mortality. We aimed to identify temporal patterns of partial pressure of oxygen in brain tissue (PbtO2), partial pressure of arterial oxygen (PaO2), and PbtO2/PaO2 ratio associated with mortality in children with severe TBI. METHODS Data were extracted from the electronic medical record of a quaternary care children's hospital with a level I trauma center for patients ≤ 18 years old with severe TBI and the presence of PbtO2 and/or intracranial pressure monitors. Temporal analyses were performed for the first 5 days of hospitalization by using locally estimated scatterplot smoothing for less than 1,000 observations and generalized additive models with integrated smoothness estimation for more than 1,000 observations. RESULTS A total of 138 intracranial pressure-monitored patients with TBI (median 5.0 [1.9-12.8] years; 65% boys; admission Glasgow Coma Scale score 4 [3-7]; mortality 18%), 71 with PbtO2 monitors and 67 without PbtO2 monitors were included. Distinct patterns in PbtO2, PaO2, and PbtO2/PaO2 were evident between survivors and nonsurvivors over the first 5 days of hospitalization. Time-series analyses showed lower PbtO2 values on day 1 and days 3-5 and lower PbtO2/PaO2 ratios on days 1, 2, and 5 among patients who died. Analysis of receiver operating characteristics curves using Youden's index identified a PbtO2 of 30 mm Hg and a PbtO2/PaO2 ratio of 0.12 as the cut points for discriminating between survivors and nonsurvivors. Univariate logistic regression identified PbtO2 < 30 mm Hg, hyperoxemia (PaO2 ≥ 300 mm Hg), and PbtO2/PaO2 ratio < 0.12 to be independently associated with mortality. CONCLUSIONS Lower PbtO2, higher PaO2, and lower PbtO2/PaO2 ratio, consistent with impaired oxygen diffusion into brain tissue, were associated with mortality in this cohort of children with severe TBI. These results corroborate our prior work that suggests targeting a higher PbtO2 threshold than recommended in current guidelines and highlight the potential use of the PbtO2/PaO2 ratio in the management of severe pediatric TBI.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Monitoring is essential to assess changes in the lung condition, to identify heart-lung interactions, and to personalize and improve respiratory support and adjuvant therapies in pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (PARDS). The objective of this article is to report the rationale of the revised recommendations/statements on monitoring from the Second Pediatric Acute Lung Injury Consensus Conference (PALICC-2). DATA SOURCES MEDLINE (Ovid), Embase (Elsevier), and CINAHL Complete (EBSCOhost). STUDY SELECTION We included studies focused on respiratory or cardiovascular monitoring of children less than 18 years old with a diagnosis of PARDS. We excluded studies focused on neonates. DATA EXTRACTION Title/abstract review, full-text review, and data extraction using a standardized data collection form. DATA SYNTHESIS The Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation approach was used to identify and summarize evidence and develop recommendations. We identified 342 studies for full-text review. Seventeen good practice statements were generated related to respiratory and cardiovascular monitoring. Four research statements were generated related to respiratory mechanics and imaging monitoring, hemodynamics monitoring, and extubation readiness monitoring. CONCLUSIONS PALICC-2 monitoring good practice and research statements were developed to improve the care of patients with PARDS and were based on new knowledge generated in recent years in patients with PARDS, specifically in topics of general monitoring, respiratory system mechanics, gas exchange, weaning considerations, lung imaging, and hemodynamic monitoring.

Abstract
BackgroundWe assessed the effect of a closed–loop oxygen control system in pediatric patients receiving high–flow nasal oxygen therapy (HFNO).MethodsA multicentre, single–blinded, randomized, and cross–over study. Patients aged between 1 month and 18 years of age receiving HFNO for acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF) were randomly assigned to start with a 2–h period of closed–loop oxygen control or a 2–h period of manual oxygen titrations, after which the patient switched to the alternative therapy. The endpoints were the percentage of time spent in predefined SpO2 ranges (primary), FiO2, SpO2/FiO2, and the number of manual adjustments.FindingsWe included 23 patients, aged a median of 18 (3–26) months. Patients spent more time in a predefined optimal SpO2 range when the closed–loop oxygen controller was activated compared to manual oxygen titrations [91⋅3% (IQR 78⋅4–95⋅1%) vs. 63⋅0% (IQR 44⋅4–70⋅7%)], mean difference [28⋅2% (95%–CI 20⋅6–37⋅8%); P < 0.001]. Median FiO2 was lower [33⋅3% (IQR 26⋅6–44⋅6%) vs. 42⋅6% (IQR 33⋅6–49⋅9%); P = 0.07], but median SpO2/FiO2 was higher [289 (IQR 207–348) vs. 194 (IQR 98–317); P = 0.023] with closed–loop oxygen control. The median number of manual adjustments was lower with closed–loop oxygen control [0⋅0 (IQR 0⋅0–0⋅0) vs. 0⋅5 (IQR 0⋅0–1⋅0); P < 0.001].ConclusionClosed-loop oxygen control improves oxygenation therapy in pediatric patients receiving HFNO for AHRF and potentially leads to more efficient oxygen use. It reduces the number of manual adjustments, which may translate into decreased workloads of healthcare providers.Clinical trial registration[www.ClinicalTrials.gov], identifier [NCT 05032365].

Abstract
Viral-induced lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI), mainly by respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), causes a major health burden among young children and has been associated with long-term respiratory dysfunction. Children with severe viral LRTI are frequently treated with oxygen therapy, hypothetically posing an additional risk factor for pulmonary sequelae. The main goal of this study was to determine the effect of concurrent hyperoxia exposure during the acute phase of viral LRTI on long-term pulmonary outcome. As an experimental model for severe RSV LRTI in infants, C57Bl/6J mice received an intranasal inoculation with the pneumonia virus of mice J3666 strain at post-natal day 7, and were subsequently exposed to hyperoxia (85% O2) or normoxia (21% O2) from post-natal day 10 to 17 during the acute phase of disease. Long-term outcomes, including lung function and structural development, were assessed 3 weeks post-inoculation at post-natal day 28. Compared to normoxic conditions, hyperoxia exposure in PVM-inoculated mice induced a transient growth arrest without subsequent catchup growth, as well as a long-term increase in airway resistance. This hyperoxia-induced pulmonary dysfunction was not associated with developmental changes to the airway or lung structure. These findings suggest that hyperoxia exposure during viral LRTI at young age may aggravate subsequent long-term pulmonary sequelae. Further research is needed to investigate the specific mechanisms underlying this alteration to pulmonary function.
