ReviewSystematic Review of Interventions to Reduce Psychiatric Morbidity in Parents and Children After PICU Admissions.
To describe and evaluate interventions aimed at reducing psychiatric morbidity in parents and children discharged from PICU. ⋯ Intervention studies are few but do lead to reductions in parent and child psychopathology. There is sufficient information to suggest some of these interventions could be supported and further evaluated.

Volume and Pressure Delivery During Pediatric High-Frequency Oscillatory Ventilation.
Identify variables independently associated with delivered tidal volume (VT) and measured mean airway pressure during high-frequency oscillatory ventilation across the range of pediatric endotracheal tube sizes. ⋯ This is the first study to quantify the interaction between ΔP and frequency in delivered VT and the effect of ΔP and frequency on delivered mean airway pressure. These results demonstrate the need to measure or estimate VT and delivered pressures during high-frequency oscillatory ventilation and may be useful in determining optimal strategies for lung protective ventilation during high-frequency oscillatory ventilation.
