Abstract
INTRODUCTION As paediatric intensive care unit (PICU) mortality declines, there is growing recognition of the morbidity experienced by children surviving critical illness and their families. A comprehensive understanding of the adverse physical, cognitive, emotional and social sequelae common to PICU survivors is limited, however, and the trajectory of recovery and risk factors for morbidity remain unknown. METHODS AND ANALYSIS The Post-Intensive Care Syndrome - paediatrics Longitudinal Cohort Study will evaluate child and family outcomes over 2 years following PICU discharge and identify child and clinical factors associated with impaired outcomes. We will enrol 750 children from 30 US PICUs during their first PICU hospitalisation, including 500 case participants experiencing ≥3 days of intensive care that include critical care therapies (eg, mechanical ventilation, vasoactive infusions) and 250 age-matched, sex-matched and medical complexity-matched control participants experiencing a single night in the PICU with no intensive care therapies. Children, parents and siblings will complete surveys about health-related quality of life, physical function, cognitive status, emotional health and peer and family relationships at multiple time points from baseline recall through 2 years post-PICU discharge. We will compare outcomes and recovery trajectories of case participants to control participants, identify risk factors associated with poor outcomes and determine the emotional and social health consequences of paediatric critical illness on parents and siblings. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION This study has received ethical approval from the University of Pennsylvania Institutional Review Board (protocol #843844). Our overall objective is to characterise the ongoing impact of paediatric critical illness to guide development of interventions that optimise outcomes among children surviving critical illness and their families. Findings will be presented at key disciplinary meetings and in peer-reviewed publications at fixed data points. Published manuscripts will be added to our public study website to ensure findings are available to families, clinicians and researchers. TRIALS REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT04967365.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To summarize the evidence for the Second Pediatric Acute Lung Injury Consensus Conference-2 (PALICC-2) recommendations for assessment of outcomes among patients surviving pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (PARDS). DATA SOURCES MEDLINE (Ovid), Embase (Elsevier), and CINAHL Complete (EBSCOhost). STUDY SELECTION We conducted a scoping review to identify studies evaluating outcomes following PARDS. We included studies of survivors of PARDS, acute respiratory failure with a high proportion of PARDS patients, or other critical illnesses if PARDS-specific outcomes could be extracted. 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. Of 8,037 abstracts screened, we identified 20 articles for inclusion. Morbidity following PARDS was common and affected multiple domains of pulmonary and nonpulmonary function. There was insufficient evidence to generate any evidence-based recommendations. We generated eight good practice statements and five research statements. A panel of 52 experts discussed each proposed good practice statement and research statement, and the agreement rate was measured with an online voting process. Good practice statements describe the approach to clinical outcome assessment, assessment of pulmonary outcomes of children surviving PARDS, and assessment of nonpulmonary outcomes of children surviving PARDS including health-related quality of life and physical, neurocognitive, emotional, family, and social functioning. The five research statements relate to assessment of patient preillness status, use of postdischarge endpoints for clinical trials, the association between short-term and longer term outcomes, the trajectory of recovery following PARDS, and practices to optimize follow-up. CONCLUSIONS There is increasing evidence that children are at risk for impairments across a range of pulmonary and nonpulmonary health domains following hospitalization for PARDS. The results of this extensive scoping review and consensus conference involving experts in PARDS research, clinical care, and outcomes assessment provide guidance to clinicians and researchers on postdischarge follow-up to optimize the long-term health of patients surviving PARDS.

Current Knowledge Regarding Long-Term Consequences of Pediatric Intensive Care: A Staff Survey in Intensive Care Units in German-Speaking Countries. Front Pediatr 2022; 10:886626. [PMID: 35712630 PMCID: PMC9197504 DOI: 10.3389/fped.2022.886626] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2022] [Accepted: 04/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The Post Intensive Care Syndrome (PICS) describes new impairments of physical, cognitive, social, or mental health after critical illness. In recent years, prevention and therapy concepts have been developed. However, it is unclear whether and to what extent these concepts are known and implemented in hospitals in German-speaking countries. METHODS We conducted an anonymous online survey in German-speaking pediatric intensive care units on the current state of knowledge about the long-term consequences of intensive care treatment as well as about already established prevention and therapy measures. The request to participate in the survey was sent to the heads of the PICUs of 98 hospitals. RESULTS We received 98 responses, 54% of the responses came from nurses, 43% from physicians and 3% from psychologist, all working in intensive care. As a main finding, our survey showed that for only 31% of the respondents PICS has an importance in their daily clinical practice. On average, respondents estimated that about 42% of children receiving intensive care were affected by long-term consequences after intensive care. The existence of a follow-up outpatient clinic was mentioned by 14% of the respondents. Frequent reported barriers to providing follow-up clinics were lack of time and staff. Most frequent mentioned core outcome parameters were normal developmental trajectory (59%) and good quality of life (52%). CONCLUSION Overall, the concept of PICS seems to be underrepresented in German-speaking pediatric intensive care units. It is crucial to expand knowledge on long-term complications after pediatric critical care and to strive for further research through follow-up programs and therewith ultimately improve long-term outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE Health-related quality of life (HRQL) has been identified as one of the core outcomes most important to assess following pediatric critical care, yet there are no data on the use of HRQL in pediatric critical care research. We aimed to determine the HRQL instruments most commonly used to assess children surviving critical care and describe study methodology, patient populations, and instrument characteristics to identify areas of deficiency and guide investigators conducting HRQL research. METHODS We queried PubMed, EMBASE, PsycINFO, Cumulative Index of Nursing and Allied Health Literature, and the Cochrane Registry for studies evaluating pediatric critical care survivors published 1970-2017. We used dual review for article selection and data extraction. RESULTS Of 60,349 citations, 66 articles met inclusion criteria. The majority of studies were observational (89.4%) and assessed HRQL at one post-discharge time-point (86.4%), and only 10.6% of studies included a baseline assessment. Time to the first follow-up assessment ranged from 1 month to 10 years post-hospitalization (median 3 years, IQR 0.5-6). For 26 prospective studies, the median follow-up time was 0.5 years [IQR 0.25-1]. Parent/guardian proxy-reporting was used in 83.3% of studies. Fifteen HRQL instruments were employed, with four used in >5% of articles: the Health Utility Index (n = 22 articles), the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (n = 17), the Child Health Questionnaire (n = 16), and the 36-Item Short Form Survey (n = 9). CONCLUSION HRQL assessment in pediatric critical care research has been centered around four instruments, though existing literature is limited by minimal longitudinal follow-up and infrequent assessment of baseline HRQL.

Abstract
Most children are surviving critical illness in highly resourced pediatric intensive care units (PICUs). However, in research studies, many of these children survive with multi-domain health sequelae that has the potential to affect development over many years, termed post-intensive care syndrome-pediatrics (PICS-p). Clinically, there are no recommendations for the assessment and follow-up of children with critical illness as exists for the premature neonatal and congenital heart disease populations. In research studies, primary and secondary outcomes are largely assessed at or prior to hospital discharge, disregarding post-hospital outcomes important to PICU stakeholders. Incorporating longer term outcomes into clinical and research programs, however, can no longer be overlooked. Barriers to outcomes assessments are varied and generalized vs. individualized, but some PICU centers are discovering how to overcome them and are providing this service to families-sometimes specific populations-in need. Research programs and funders are increasingly recognizing the value and need to assess long-term outcomes post-PICU. Finally, we should seek the strong backing of the PICU community and families to insist that long-term outcomes become our new clinical standard of care. PICUs should consider development of a multicenter, multinational collaborative to assess clinical outcomes and optimize care delivery and patient and family outcomes. The aim of this review is to present the potential considerations of implementing long-term clinical follow-up following pediatric critical illness.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To serially evaluate health-related quality of life during the first year after community-acquired septic shock in children with preexisting severe developmental disabilities and explore factors associated with health-related quality of life changes in these children. DESIGN Secondary analysis of the Life after Pediatric Sepsis Evaluation investigation. SETTING Twelve academic PICU in the United States. PATIENTS Children greater than or equal to 1 month and less than 18 years old identified by their family caregiver (e.g., parent/guardian) as having severe developmental disability prior to septic shock. INTERVENTIONS Family caregivers completed the Stein-Jessop Functional Status II-R Short Form as a measure of their child's health-related quality of life at baseline (reflecting preadmission status), day 7, and months 1, 3, 6, and 12 following PICU admission. Stein-Jessop Functional Status II-R Short Form scores were linearly transformed to a 0-100 scale, with higher scores indicating better health-related quality of life. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Of 392 Life after Pediatric Sepsis Evaluation participants, 137 were identified by their caregiver as having a severe developmental disability. Sixteen children (11.6%) with severe disability died during the 12 months following septic shock. Among 121 survivors, Stein-Jessop Functional Status II-R Short Form scores declined from preadmission baseline to day 7 (70.7 ± 16.1 vs 55.6 ± 19.2; p < 0.001). Stein-Jessop Functional Status II-R Short Form scores remained below baseline through month 12 (59.1 ± 21.0, p < 0.001 vs baseline). After adjusting for baseline Stein-Jessop Functional Status II-R Short Form, the caregiver being a single parent/guardian was associated with lower month 3 Stein-Jessop Functional Status II-R Short Form scores (p = 0.041). No other baseline child or caregiver characteristic, or critical illness-related factors were significantly associated with month 3 Stein-Jessop Functional Status II-R Short Form scores. CONCLUSIONS Health-related quality of life among children with severe developmental disability remains, on average, below baseline during the first year following community-acquired septic shock. Children with severe disability and septic shock that are in single parent families are at increased risk. Clinical awareness of the potential for decline in health-related quality of life among disabled children is essential to prevent this adverse outcome from being missed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the physical and psychosocial domains of health-related quality of life among children during the first year following community-acquired septic shock, and explore factors associated with poor physical and psychosocial health-related quality of life outcomes. DESIGN Secondary analysis of the Life After Pediatric Sepsis Evaluation. SETTING Twelve academic PICUs in the United States. PATIENTS Children greater than or equal to 1 month and less than 18 years old who were perceived to be without severe developmental disability by their family caregiver at baseline and who survived hospitalization for community-acquired septic shock. INTERVENTIONS Family caregivers completed the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory for children 2-18 years old or the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory Infant Scales for children less than 2 years old at baseline (reflecting preadmission status), day 7, and months 1, 3, 6, and 12 following PICU admission. Higher Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory Physical and Psychosocial Health Summary Scores indicate better health-related quality of life. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Of 204 children, 58 (28.2%) had a complex chronic comorbid condition. Children with complex chronic comorbid conditions had lower baseline physical health-related quality of life (62.7 ± 22.6 vs 84.1 ± 19.7; p < 0.001) and psychosocial health-related quality of life (68.4 ± 14.1 vs 81.2 ± 15.3; p < 0.001) than reference norms, whereas children without such conditions had baseline scores similar to reference norms. Children with complex chronic comorbid conditions recovered to their baseline health-related quality of life, whereas children without such conditions did not (physical health-related quality of life 75.3 ± 23.7 vs 83.2 ± 20.1; p = 0.008 and psychosocial health-related quality of life 74.5 ± 18.7 vs 80.5 ± 17.9; p = 0.006). Age less than 2 years was independently associated with higher month 12 physical health-related quality of life, and abnormal neurologic examination and neurologic injury suspected by a healthcare provider during the PICU course were independently associated with lower month 12 physical health-related quality of life. Treatment of increased intracranial pressure and medical device use at month 1 were independently associated with lower month 12 psychosocial health-related quality of life. CONCLUSIONS Physical and psychosocial health-related quality of life were reduced among children during the first year following community-acquired septic shock compared with reference norms, although many recovered to baseline. Risk factors for poor health-related quality of life included neurologic complications during the hospitalization and dependence on a medical device 1 month postadmission.
