Eligibility

Age
2 Years to 11 Years

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: - Signed informed consent by the parents or legal caretakers - Admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) of the Emma Children*s Hospital, Academic Medical Center, Amsterdam, The Netherlands - Intubated and mechanically ventilated, with an anticipated duration of mechanical ventilation of at least 72 hours at enrolment (as judged by the investigator or pediatrician on duty). - Patients with acute infectious lung disease, including (suspected) viral, bacterial or fungal infection

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: -Patients in need of a particular fluid regimen (either restrictive or liberal) due to their medical history (e.g. cardiovascular disease and/or congenital (cyanotic) heart disease) - Use of previous and/or maintenance diuretic treatment - Ongoing (fluid) resuscitation for shock on admission - Acute kidney injury with need for renal replacement therapy

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The main study parameters are (cumulative) fluid balance and body weight during the first week of mechanical ventilation.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The secondary study parameters are in preparation of the larger multi-center RCT and include: - Mortality - Duration of mechanical ventilation - Oxygenation indices (for which ventilation settings and blood gas analyses are assessed; taking blood gases is part of standard care in the PICU, no extra invasive blood punctions will be needed) To determine the feasibility of the experimental treatment arm, we aim to study: - In- and exclusion rate - Adherence to treatment arms - Need for fluid bolus - Need for diuretics - Hemodynamic indices (blood pressure, heart rate, medication) - Occurrence of electrolyte imbalances (blood gas analyses are part of standard clinical care, see above)
