Key Points

To describe superimposed pressure in pediatric ARDS and assess its associations with various parameters.
Retrospective cohort study conducted at an urban academic children’s hospital.
Included 12 pediatric ARDS patients and 24 age-matched controls.
Quantitative CT analysis measured lung aeration and superimposed pressure in 10 regions.
Dorsal superimposed pressure was significantly higher in pARDS patients (5.9 cm H2O) than in controls (3.0 cm H2O); p < 0.001.
SP correlated with chest circumference (ρ = 0.60; p = 0.043) and lung weight (ρ = 0.76; p = 0.006).
No significant relationship between SP and oxygenation indices was observed.
