Unintentional pediatric injuries in Sao Paulo. How often is it severe?

Purpose: To evaluate severity and built a pilot of a national databank about pediatric trauma and to determine its severity. Methods: Prospective study of unintentional pediatric trauma in five hospitals in the city of Sao Paulo, Brazil. Results: 916 patients in 4 months. 61.5% of traumatized children were male, average 6.5 years. 48. 4% were falls. Most families had an average monthly income less than three minimum wages. 42% of accidents occurred at home. 18.9% of children were alone. 59,8% of parents thought it could be prevented. 26.5% of children had previous accidents. GCS was severe: 5 patients, moderate: 8 patients. 21 patients were intubated (2.4%), RTS <7 in 10.2%, PTS<8 in 3.6%. 8.5% patients were considered severe, which was related to falls (p= 0.001)sports (p= 0.045)pedestrian (p= 0.006)child education (p= 0.015) and cared by male (p= 0.007). Conclusions: Severity occurred in 8.5% and was associated to falls, sports, traffic, child education, and cared by male. Simple preventive measures could have prevented most of the accidents. The tested tool for details was successful and can be used throughout the country.Univ Fed Sao Paulo UNIFESP, Dept Surg, Sao Paulo, SP, BrazilOrg Nao Govt ONG Crianca Segura, Sao Paulo, SP, BrazilONG Crianca Segura, Sao Paulo, SP, BrazilSoc Brasileira Pediat, Dept Childhood Safety, Sao Paulo, SP, BrazilAssociacao Brasileira Defesa Consumidor PROTESTE, Sao Paulo, SP, BrazilTeaching & Simulat Ctr HCor CETES HCor, Sao Paulo, SP, BrazilUniv Fed Sao Paulo, Dept Surg, Rua Coronel Lisboa 687, BR-04020041 Sao Paulo, SP, BrazilUniv Fed Para UFPA, Belem, Para, BrazilUniv Fed Sao Paulo UNIFESP, Operat Tech & Expt Surg, Dept Surg, Sao Paulo, SP, BrazilUniv Fed Sao Paulo UNIFESP, Dept Surg, Sao Paulo, SP, BrazilUniv Fed Sao Paulo, Dept Surg, Rua Coronel Lisboa 687, BR-04020041 Sao Paulo, SP, BrazilUniv Fed Sao Paulo UNIFESP, Operat Tech & Expt Surg, Dept Surg, Sao Paulo, SP, BrazilWeb of Scienc

Effect of Lung Recruitment and Titrated Positive End-Expiratory Pressure (PEEP) vs Low PEEP on Mortality in Patients With Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome : a Randomized Clinical Trial

IMPORTANCE The effects of recruitment maneuvers and positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) titration on clinical outcomes in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) remain uncertain. OBJECTIVE To determine if lung recruitment associated with PEEP titration according to the best respiratory-system compliance decreases 28-day mortality of patients with moderate to severe ARDS compared with a conventional low-PEEP strategy. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS Multicenter, randomized trial conducted at 120 intensive care units (ICUs) from 9 countries from November 17, 2011, through April 25, 2017, enrolling adults with moderate to severe ARDS. INTERVENTIONS An experimental strategy with a lung recruitment maneuver and PEEP titration according to the best respiratory-system compliance (n = 501experimental group) or a control strategy of low PEEP (n = 509). All patients received volume-assist control mode until weaning. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES The primary outcomewas all-cause mortality until 28 days. Secondary outcomes were length of ICU and hospital stayventilator-free days through day 28pneumothorax requiring drainage within 7 daysbarotrauma within 7 daysand ICU, in-hospital, and 6-month mortality. RESULTS A total of 1010 patients (37.5% femalemean [SD] age, 50.9 [17.4] years) were enrolled and followed up. At 28 days, 277 of 501 patients (55.3%) in the experimental group and 251 of 509 patients (49.3%) in the control group had died (hazard ratio [HR], 1.2095% CI, 1.01 to 1.42P =.041). Compared with the control group, the experimental group strategy increased 6-month mortality (65.3% vs 59.9%HR, 1.1895% CI, 1.01 to 1.38P =.04), decreased the number of mean ventilator-free days (5.3 vs 6.4difference, -1.195% CI, -2.1 to -0.1P =.03), increased the risk of pneumothorax requiring drainage (3.2% vs 1.2%difference, 2.0%95% CI, 0.0% to 4.0%P =.03), and the risk of barotrauma (5.6% vs 1.6%difference, 4.0%95% CI, 1.5% to 6.5%P =.001). There were no significant differences in the length of ICU stay, length of hospital stay, ICU mortality, and in-hospital mortality. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE In patients with moderate to severe ARDS, a strategy with lung recruitment and titrated PEEP compared with low PEEP increased 28-day all-cause mortality. These findings do not support the routine use of lung recruitment maneuver and PEEP titration in these patients. (C) 2017 American Medical Association.
