OPEN REGISTRY (LIMITED): Outcome of Children Post Mechanical Ventilation
Mechanical ventilation is a life-saving therapy widely used in PICU, but not without adverse effects. The mid-term outcome of mechanically ventilated children who survive critical illness is still poorly defined, in terms of respiratory status, functionality, and quality of life. This lack of knowledge can lead to delays in management and thus hinder the recovery of children.
The aim of this study is to determine the impact on the functional and respiratory outcome of pediatric patients after a stay a PICU of the province of Quebec.
