Summary

To date, the end-expiratory occlusion test in infants or children has never been evaluated as a marker of preload dependence. It therefore appears clinically relevant to evaluate this new indicator to predict fluid responsiveness in all infants hospitalized in pediatric and neonatal intensive care.

The main objective of this study is to determine whether the hemodynamic effects of a 15-second end-expiratory occlusion were able to predict fluid responsiveness in the mechanically ventilated infant or newborn in pediatric intensive care.

Conditions

  • Shock

Interventions

OTHER

End-expiratory occlusion test

The test consists in interrupting the ventilator at end-expiration for 15 seconds and assessing the resulting changes in cardiac output. Delays necessary to allow sufficient pulmonary transit time to allow good pulmonary venous return and therefore an increase in cardiac preload.
