Top 3 outcomes that we should consider in our #PedsICU trials

Patient-reported outcomes takes number 1 spot!

Inherent challenges in conducting #PedsICU studies.

Recruitment numbers and consent rate for the #LASPE study

Majority of septic shock patients in #PedsICU has concurrent comorbidities.

In all patients, functional status deteriorates during the PICU stay but gradually improves but not to baseline.

Factors associated with decreased #HRQOL and functional status in #PedsICU septic shock survivors:

1. Organ dysfunction
2. Degree of inotropic support
3. Acute neurological event

Nice concluding slides by @jerjohzimm @SCCM on take home messages from the LAPSE study
