Eligibility

Age
2 Years to 17 Years

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1. Inclusion criteria * Mechanically ventilated * Have lung pathology (either primary or secondary) who fulfil the definition of Acute Lung Injury (ALI) or Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) -see below * And their parents agree for them to participate in the study and give given written informed consent

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: * Children ventilated for an obstructive lung pathology * Children with raised intracranial pressure or a head injury

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
* Comparison of pulmonary physiological, circulatory, and ventilatory parameters in each patient, enabling correlation between these parameters: haemodynamic parameters, blood gas analysis including oxygen saturation, PaO2/ FiO2, v CO2, opening pressure, closing pressure, oesophageal pressure, plus during CMV we will also measure dynamic compliance, elastance, respiratory inductance plethysmography and deadspace. * Correlation of PEEP/MAP and the TPP with currently used markers indicating achievement optimal lung volume (pO2, p CO2, dynamic compliance, deadspace). * Comparison of two groups * to compare above parameters between the two groups of primary and secondary ARDS

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
bloodgasses, hemodynamics

Countries

Netherlands
