Identifying Risk Factors for Pressure Injury in Adult Critical Care Patients.
CONCLUSION: Determining pressure injury risk in critically ill patients is complex and challenging. One common pathophysiological factor is impaired tissue oxygenation and perfusion, which may be nonmodifiable. Improved risk quantification is needed and may be realized in the near future by leveraging the clinical information available in the electronic medical record through the power of predictive analytics.

A survey on the resources and practices in pediatric critical care of resource-rich and resource-limited countries
Conclusions Although differences exist in access to both trained providers and equipment, the survey results were more striking in their similarity. It is essential that centers from LMICs be included in multinational studies, to generate results applicable to all children worldwide.

Quantifiable Bleeding in Children Supported by Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation and Outcome
Conclusions: In children supported by extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, chest tube bleeding above 60 mL/kg/d was independently associated with worse clinical outcome. Low fibrinogen was independently associated with chest tube bleeding, whereas platelet count and hemostatic tests were not. Further research is needed to evaluate if interventions to prevent or stop chest tube bleeding influence the clinical outcome.

Hybrid Extracorporeal Therapies as a Bridge to Pediatric Liver Transplantation*
Conclusions: Hybrid extracorporeal therapies can be effectively implemented in pediatric liver failure as a bridge to transplantation. Overall complexity and heavy resource utilization need to be carefully considered in instituting these therapies in suitable candidates.

Critical Care Compendium update
LITFL’s Critical Care Compendium is a comprehensive collection of pages concisely covering the core topics and controversies of critical care. Currently there are almost 1,500 entries with more in the works… Some pages are more developed than others, and all the pages are being constantly revised and improved. Links to new references and online resources are added daily, with an emphasis on those that are free and open access (FOAM!). These pages originated from the FCICM exam study notes created by Dr Jeremy Fernando in 2011, and have been updated, modified and added to since. As such will be particularly us...

Continuous renal replacement therapy applications on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation circuit
Conclusions: Adding a CRRT device on ECMO circuit is a safe and effective technique. The major advantages of this technique are easy to access, applying CRRT without extra anticoagulation process, preventing potential hemodynamic disturbances, and increased clearance of solutes and fluid overload using larger hemofilter.

Cardiac Surgery–Associated Kidney Injury in Children and Renal Oximetry
Conclusions: Findings demonstrate that preoperative oxygen supply/demand balance is an important predictor of cardiac surgery–associated acute kidney injury, suggesting lower preoperative (and intraoperative) renal blood flow may be protective. There is not yet a definite link between remote ischemic preconditioning and prevention of cardiac surgery–associated acute kidney injury; however, renal protective effects of sublethal ischemia should continue to be explored.

Early Peritoneal Dialysis and Postoperative Outcomes in Infants After Pediatric Cardiac Surgery: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis*
Conclusions: This review suggests that early initiation of PD may be associated with beneficial postoperative outcomes in infants after cardiac surgery. However, these results were based on studies of varying qualities and risk of bias. Early identification of high-risk infants after cardiac surgery is important so that prevention or early mitigation strategies can be applied to this cohort. Future prospective studies in high-risk populations are needed to study the role of early PD in influencing postoperative outcomes.

Hyperoxia Is Associated With Poor Outcomes in Pediatric Cardiac Patients Supported on Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation*
Objectives: Patients who require venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation because of cardiac failure frequently have supranormal blood oxygen tensions (hyperoxia). Recent studies have suggested worse outcomes in patients with hyperoxia after resuscitation from cardiac or respiratory arrests, presumably because of oxidative stress. There are limited data regarding the effect of hyperoxia on outcomes in pediatric patients on venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. Design: Retrospective chart review. Setting: Pediatric cardiothoracic ICU. Patients: Cardiac surgery patients less than 1 year old requiring v...

Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation for Pediatric Respiratory Failure: Risk Factors Associated With Center Volume and Mortality*
Conclusions: Among neonates, investigation for intraventricular hemorrhage prior to extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and preservation of renal function are important factors for improvement. Earlier initiation of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and careful attention to preservation of organ function are important to improve survival for children.

Dose Prescription and Delivery in Neonates With Congenital Heart Diseases Treated With Continuous Veno-Venous Hemofiltration
Objectives: Renal replacement therapy may be required for acute kidney injury treatment in neonates with complex cardiac conditions. Continuous veno-venous hemofiltration is applied safely in this population but no published recommendations for dose prescription in neonates currently exist. The aim of our study was to evaluate the effects of a relatively small dialysis dose on critically ill neonates. Design: Retrospective analysis of clinical charts. Setting: Pediatric Cardiac ICU. Patients: Ten critically ill neonates with severe acute kidney injury were analyzed. The primary indication for continuous veno-venous hemo...

Furosemide Response Predicts Acute Kidney Injury After Cardiac Surgery in Infants and Neonates
Objective: Cardiac surgery–induced acute kidney injury occurs frequently in neonates and infants and is associated with postoperative morbidity/mortality; early identification of cardiac surgery–induced acute kidney injury may be crucial to mitigate postoperative morbidity. We sought to determine if hourly or 6-hour cumulative urine output after furosemide in the first 24 hours after cardiopulmonary bypass could predict development of cardiac surgery–induced acute kidney injury and other deleterious outcomes. Design: Retrospective chart review. Setting: Pediatric cardiac ICU. Patients: All infants younger ...

Avoiding Furosemide Ototoxicity Associated With Single-Ventricle Repair in Young Infants*
Conclusions: A practice change to ensure slow IV administration of furosemide eliminated permanent hearing loss. Centers caring for critically ill infants, particularly those with single-ventricle anatomy or hypoxia, should review their drug administration guidelines and adhere to best practice for administration of IV furosemide.

The Effect of Levosimendan Versus Milrinone on the Occurrence Rate of Acute Kidney Injury Following Congenital Heart Surgery in Infants: A Randomized Clinical Trial*
Conclusions: Levosimendan compared with milrinone did not reduce the occurrence rate of acute kidney injury in infants after total corrective heart surgery for atrioventricular septal defect, ventricular septal defect, or Tetralogy of Fallot.
