An Ethical Claim for Providing Medical Recommendations in Pediatric Intensive Care

Associations Between Postoperative Management in the Critical Care Unit and Adolescent Developmental Outcomes Following Cardiac Surgery in Infancy: An Exploratory Study*
Conclusions: Several important developmental outcomes in adolescents were associated with factors related to their postoperative course in the PICU as infants. Findings may highlight those children at highest risk for neurodevelopmental sequelae and suggest new approaches to critical care management following open-heart surgery, with the aim of mitigating or preventing adverse long-term outcomes.

Family presence during resuscitation and invasive procedures in pediatric critical care: a systematic review.
CONCLUSIONS: These studies support the suggestion that family presence during resuscitation and invasive procedures increases parents' satisfaction and coping. However, the generalizability of these findings is limited by small sample sizes and inconsistent evaluation of confounding variables. Further research is needed to determine the benefits of family presence and prevent barriers to true implementation. PMID: 25362671 [PubMed - in process]
