Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation in Pediatric Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome: From the Second Pediatric Acute Lung Injury Consensus Conference.
To systematically review and assimilate literature on children receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support in pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (PARDS) with the goal of developing an update to the Pediatric Acute Lung Injury Consensus Conference recommendations and statements about clinical practice and research. ⋯ Based on a systematic literature review, we propose clinical management, good practice and policy statements within the domains of ECMO indications, initiation, team organization, team training, management, and follow-up as they relate to PARDS.

ReviewNonpulmonary Treatments for Pediatric Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome: From the Second Pediatric Acute Lung Injury Consensus Conference.
To provide an updated review of the literature on nonpulmonary treatments for pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (PARDS) from the Second Pediatric Acute Lung Injury Consensus Conference. ⋯ These recommendations and statements about nonpulmonary treatments in PARDS are intended to promote optimization and consistency of care for patients with PARDS and identify areas of uncertainty requiring further investigation.

ReviewPathobiology, Severity, and Risk Stratification of Pediatric Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome: From the Second Pediatric Acute Lung Injury Consensus Conference.
To review the literature for studies published in children on the pathobiology, severity, and risk stratification of pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (PARDS) with the intent of guiding current medical practice and identifying important areas for future research related to severity and risk stratification. ⋯ Based on an extensive literature review, we propose clinical management and research recommendations related to characterization and risk stratification of PARDS severity.

Meta AnalysisNoninvasive Ventilation for Acute Respiratory Failure in Pediatric Patients: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
To perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on the use of noninvasive ventilation (NIV) for acute respiratory failure (ARF) in pediatric patients. ⋯ In pediatric patients, NIV applied for ARF might reduce the intubation rate compared with standard oxygen therapy or HFNC. No difference in mortality was observed.
