Why the study?
Are early right ventricular dysfunction and pulmonary hypertension associated with worse outcomes in children with pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome?
Are early right ventricular dysfunction and pulmonary hypertension associated with worse outcomes in children with pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome?
Early right ventricular dysfunction and pulmonary hypertension are prevalent in pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome and are independently associated with increased PICU mortality and lower probability of extubation.
RV strain may aid risk stratification in pediatric ARDS; hypothesis-generating for targeted interventions.
