Relationship between neonatal respiratory distress syndrome pulmonary ultrasonography and respiratory distress score, oxygenation index, and chest radiography grading. World J Clin Cases 2024; 12:4154-4165. [DOI: 10.12998/wjcc.v12.i20.4154] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/10/2024] [Revised: 05/17/2024] [Accepted: 06/03/2024] [Indexed: 06/30/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Accurate condition assessment is critical for improving the prognosis of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), but current assessment methods for RDS pose a cumulative risk of harm to neonates. Thus, a less harmful method for assessing the health of neonates with RDS is needed.
AIM To analyze the relationships between pulmonary ultrasonography and respiratory distress scores, oxygenation index, and chest X-ray grade of neonatal RDS to identify predictors of neonatal RDS severity.
METHODS This retrospective study analyzed the medical information of 73 neonates with RDS admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit of Liupanshui Maternal and Child Care Service Center between April and December 2022. The pulmonary ultrasonography score, respiratory distress score, oxygenation index, and chest X-ray grade of each newborn before and after treatment were collected. Spearman correlation analysis was performed to determine the relationships among these values and neonatal RDS severity.
RESULTS The pulmonary ultrasonography score, respiratory distress score, oxygenation index, and chest X-ray RDS grade of the neonates were significantly lower after treatment than before treatment (P < 0.05). Spearman correlation analysis showed that before and after treatment, the pulmonary ultrasonography score of neonates with RDS was positively correlated with the respiratory distress score, oxygenation index, and chest X-ray grade (ρ = 0.429–0.859, P < 0.05). Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis indicated that pulmonary ultrasonography screening effectively predicted the severity of neonatal RDS (area under the curve = 0.805–1.000, P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION The pulmonary ultrasonography score was significantly associated with the neonatal RDS score, oxygenation index, and chest X-ray grade. The pulmonary ultrasonography score was an effective predictor of neonatal RDS severity.

[PMID: 37861865 DOI: 10.1007/s00467-023-06161-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/25/2023] [Revised: 08/29/2023] [Accepted: 08/29/2023] [Indexed: 10/21/2023]
Abstract
Over the past two decades, our understanding of the impact of acute kidney injury, disorders of fluid balance, and their interplay have increased significantly. In recent years, the epidemiology and impact of fluid balance, including the pathologic state of fluid overload on outcomes has been studied extensively across multiple pediatric and neonatal populations. A detailed understating of fluid balance has become increasingly important as it is recognized as a target for intervention to continue to work to improve outcomes in these populations. In this review, we provide an update on the epidemiology and outcomes associated with fluid balance disorders and the development of fluid overload in children with acute kidney injury (AKI). This will include a detailed review of consensus definitions of fluid balance, fluid overload, and the methodologies to define them, impact of fluid balance on the diagnosis of AKI and the concept of fluid corrected serum creatinine. This review will also provide detailed descriptions of future directions and the changing paradigms around fluid balance and AKI in critical care nephrology, including the incorporation of the sequential utilization of risk stratification, novel biomarkers, and functional kidney tests (furosemide stress test) into research and ultimately clinical care. Finally, the review will conclude with novel methods currently under study to assess fluid balance and distribution (point of care ultrasound and bioimpedance).

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Describe the frequency with which transfusion and medications that modulate lung injury are administered to children meeting at-risk for pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARF-PARDS) criteria and evaluate for associations of transfusion, fluid balance, nutrition, and medications with unfavorable clinical outcomes. DESIGN Secondary analysis of the Pediatric Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome Incidence and Epidemiology study, a prospective point prevalence study. All enrolled ARF-PARDS patients were included unless they developed subsequent pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (PARDS) within 24 hours of PICU admission or PICU length of stay was less than 24 hours. Univariate and multivariable analyses were used to identify associations between therapies given during the first 2 calendar days after ARF-PARDS diagnosis and subsequent PARDS diagnosis (primary outcome), 28-day PICU-free days (PFDs), and 28-day ventilator-free days (VFDs). SETTING Thirty-seven international PICUs. PATIENTS Two hundred sixty-seven children meeting Pediatric Acute Lung Injury Consensus Conference ARF-PARDS criteria. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS During the first 2 days after meeting ARF-PARDS criteria, 55% of subjects received beta-agonists, 42% received corticosteroids, 28% received diuretics, and 9% were transfused. Subsequent PARDS (15%) was associated with platelet transfusion (n = 11; adjusted odds ratio: 4.75 [95% CI 1.03-21.92]) and diuretics (n = 74; 2.55 [1.19-5.46]) in multivariable analyses that adjusted for comorbidities, PARDS risk factor, initial oxygen saturation by pulse oximetry:Fio2 ratio, and initial type of ventilation. Beta-agonists were associated with lower adjusted odds of subsequent PARDS (0.43 [0.19-0.98]). Platelets and diuretics were also associated with fewer PFDs and fewer VFDs in the multivariable models, and TPN was associated with fewer PFDs. Corticosteroids, net fluid balance, and volume of enteral feeding were not associated with the primary or secondary outcomes. CONCLUSIONS There is an independent association between platelet transfusion, diuretic administration, and unfavorable outcomes in children at risk for PARDS, although this may be related to treatment bias and unmeasured confounders. Nevertheless, prospective evaluation of the role of these management strategies on outcomes in children with ARF-PARDS is needed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To provide an updated review of the literature on nonpulmonary treatments for pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (PARDS) from the Second Pediatric Acute Lung Injury Consensus Conference. DATA SOURCES MEDLINE (Ovid), Embase (Elsevier), and CINAHL Complete (EBSCOhost). STUDY SELECTION Searches were limited to children with PARDS or hypoxic respiratory failure focused on nonpulmonary adjunctive therapies (sedation, delirium management, neuromuscular blockade, nutrition, fluid management, transfusion, sleep management, and rehabilitation). 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. Twenty-five studies were identified for full-text extraction. Five clinical practice recommendations were generated, related to neuromuscular blockade, nutrition, fluid management, and transfusion. Thirteen good practice statements were generated on the use of sedation, iatrogenic withdrawal syndrome, delirium, sleep management, rehabilitation, and additional information on neuromuscular blockade and nutrition. Three research statements were generated to promote further investigation in nonpulmonary therapies for PARDS. CONCLUSIONS These recommendations and statements about nonpulmonary treatments in PARDS are intended to promote optimization and consistency of care for patients with PARDS and identify areas of uncertainty requiring further investigation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To review the literature for studies published in children on the pathobiology, severity, and risk stratification of pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (PARDS) with the intent of guiding current medical practice and identifying important areas for future research related to severity and risk stratification. DATA SOURCES Electronic searches of PubMed and Embase were conducted from 2013 to March 2022 by using a combination of medical subject heading terms and text words to capture the pathobiology, severity, and comorbidities of PARDS. STUDY SELECTION We included studies of critically ill patients with PARDS that related to the severity and risk stratification of PARDS using characteristics other than the oxygenation defect. Studies using animal models, adult only, and studies with 10 or fewer children were excluded from our review. 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 for clinical practice. There were 192 studies identified for full-text extraction to address the relevant Patient/Intervention/Comparator/Outcome questions. One clinical recommendation was generated related to the use of dead space fraction for risk stratification. In addition, six research statements were generated about the impact of age on acute respiratory distress syndrome pathobiology and outcomes, addressing PARDS heterogeneity using biomarkers to identify subphenotypes and endotypes, and use of standardized ventilator, physiologic, and nonpulmonary organ failure measurements for future research. CONCLUSIONS Based on an extensive literature review, we propose clinical management and research recommendations related to characterization and risk stratification of PARDS severity.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The issues of fluid balance and fluid overload are currently considered crucial aspects of pediatric critically ill patients' care. RECENT FINDINGS This review describes current understanding of fluid management in critically ill children in terms of fluid balance and fluid overload and its effects on patients' outcomes. The review describes current evidence surrounding definitions, monitoring, and treatment of positive fluid balance. In particular, the review focuses on specific patient conditions, including perioperative cardiac surgery, severe acute respiratory failure, and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation therapy, as the ones at highest risk of developing fluid overload and poor clinical outcomes. Gaps in understanding include specific thresholds at which fluid overload occurs in all critically ill children or specific populations and optimal timing of decongestion of positive fluid balance. SUMMARY Current evidence on fluid balance in critically ill children is mainly based on retrospective and observational studies, and intense research should be recommended in this important field. In theory, active decongestion of patients with fluid overload could improve mortality and other clinical outcomes, but randomized trials or advanced pragmatic studies are needed to better understand the optimal timing, patient characteristics, and tools to achieve this.

Front Pediatr 2022; 10:828637.

Abstract
Appropriate fluid management in mechanically ventilated critically ill children remains an important challenge and topic of active discussion in pediatric intensive care medicine. An increasing number of studies show an association between a positive fluid balance or fluid overload and adverse outcomes. However, to date, no international consensus regarding fluid management or removal strategies exists. The aim of this study was to obtain more insight into the current clinical practice of fluid therapy in mechanically ventilated critically ill children. On behalf of the section of cardiovascular dynamics of the European Society of Pediatric and Neonatal Intensive Care (ESPNIC) we conducted an anonymous survey among pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) specialists in Europe regarding fluid overload and management. A total of 107 study participants responded to the survey. The vast majority of respondents considers fluid overload to be a common phenomenon in mechanically ventilated children and believes this complication is associated with adverse outcomes, such as mortality and duration of respiratory support. Yet, only 75% of the respondents administers a lower volume of fluids (reduction of 20% of normal intake) to mechanically ventilated critically ill children on admission. During PICU stay, a cumulative fluid balance of more than 5% is considered to be an indication to reduce fluid intake and start diuretic treatment in most respondents. Next to fluid balance calculation, the occurrence of peripheral and/or pulmonary edema (as assessed including by chest radiograph and lung ultrasound) was considered an important clinical sign of fluid overload entailing further therapeutic action. In conclusion, fluid overload in mechanically ventilated critically ill children is considered an important problem among PICU specialists, but there is great heterogeneity in the current clinical practice to avoid this complication. We identify a great need for further prospective and randomized investigation of the effects of (restrictive) fluid strategies in the PICU.
