Virtual Developmental Screening After Invasive Mechanical Ventilation in Children: A Prospective Cohort Pilot Study
CONCLUSIONS:
Virtual caregiver-completed surveillance is a promising method to screen children for neurodevelopmental abnormalities following PICU hospitalization and facilitate early referral for developmental intervention, but special attention must be dedicated to families with limited resources for follow-up.

Associations With Extubation Failure and Predictive Value of Risk Analytics Algorithms With Extubation Readiness Tests Following Congenital Cardiac Surgery
OBJECTIVES:
Extubation failure is associated with morbidity and mortality in children following cardiac surgery. Current extubation readiness tests (ERT) do not consider the nonrespiratory support provided by mechanical ventilation (MV) for children with congenital heart disease. We aimed to identify factors associated with extubation failure in children following cardiac surgery and assess the performance of two risk analytics algorithms for patients undergoing an ERT.
DESIGN:
Retrospective cohort study.
SETTING:
CICU at a tertiary-care children’s hospital.
PATIENTS:
Children receiving MV greate...

Direct Discharge to Home From the Pediatric Cardiovascular ICU
CONCLUSIONS:
Cardiovascular ICU direct discharge to home was not associated with increased unplanned readmissions compared with patients discharged from acute care and may be safe in select patients. Frontline cardiovascular ICU providers feel time constraints challenge direct discharge to home. Further research is needed to identify patient characteristics associated with safe direct discharge to home and systems needed to support this practice.
Summary statistics are described using proportions or medians with interquartile ranges (IQRs) and were performed using Microsoft Excel (Microsoft, Redmond, WA). Two-sample...

Identifying Long-Term Morbidities and Health Trajectories After Prolonged Mechanical Ventilation in Children Using State All Payer Claims Data*
CONCLUSIONS:
New morbidities are common after prolonged mechanical ventilation. Identifying phenotypes at high risk of postdischarge morbidity may facilitate prognostic enrichment in clinical trials. (Source: Pediatric Critical Care Medicine)

Acute and Posttraumatic Stress in Family Members of Children With a Prolonged Stay in a PICU: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Trial
CONCLUSIONS:
Meeting screening criteria for PTSD was associated with demographic, length of stay, and family relationships among family members of seriously ill children. PTSD outcomes were higher among family members whose child died. This study helps identify risk factors that can be used to target needed psychosocial screening, monitoring and support during and following a prolonged PICU admission, as well as family-centered interventions and supportive bereavement intervention for the family members of a deceased child.

Preload Dependence Fails to Predict Hemodynamic Instability During a Fluid Removal Challenge in Children*
CONCLUSIONS:
Preload dependence is not accurate to predict hemodynamic instability during an FRC. Our data do not support a reduction in intravascular volume being mainly responsible for the reduction in arterial pressure during an FRC in children. (Source: Pediatric Critical Care Medicine)
