About
Prospective observational cohort study within the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU). We will perform point-of-care-ultrasound (POCUS) to quantify tricuspid regurgitant jet velocity (TRJV) on mechanically ventilated (MV) children. Mechanically ventilated (MV) children approaching extubation as per the discretion of the PICU clinical team will undergo a positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) titration protocol in a safe and timely manner in the PICU. During this PEEP titration, POCUS will be performed by a pediatric intensivist and interpreted by a pediatric cardiologist. Medical demographics will be collected from the electronic medical record and recorded.
Full description
New admissions to the PICU will be identified by screening the electronic medical record (EMR) and all intubated patients will be screened and approached for enrollment if they meet inclusion criteria. After informed consent is obtained, subjects will be assigned a unique identifying number. Data will be stored in REDCap. A master link connecting subject POCUS image will be locked in the PI's office.
