Study Summary

Children who are critically ill often require large amounts of fluid during their acute illness. It has been shown in multiple studies that appropriate administration of fluid decreases morbidity and mortality, but giving too much fluid can also cause increased morbidity and mortality. It is often difficult to discern from physical exam, vital signs and labs if the amount of fluid that has been given is appropriate or if a pediatric patient requires more fluid. Pulse pressure variation (PPV) is the change in blood pressure when a patient is on a ventilator or breathing machine. PPV has been used in multiple adult studies to help predict fluid needs in a critically ill patient. In this study, we would like to investigate if PPV can help better predict if critically ill pediatric patients in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) need fluid. The investigators hope that by having the additional information that PPV can provide, physicians can more judiciously give fluid and thereby improve morbidity of critically ill patients in the PICU.
