Abstract:
To explore the relationship between paediatric early warning score (PEWS) and the occurrence of mechanical ventilation complications in children with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).
Methods: A total of 110 children with ARDS diagnosed in First Affiliated Hospital of Hebei North University, who underwent mechanical ventilation, were selected. The baseline data, blood gas analysis index, laboratory test index, ventilator parameters, pediatric critical illness score (PCIS) and PEWS in the children were recorded. With reference to ventilatory treatment results, the children with ventilator-associated complications were included in the trial group (n=20), while the patients with good cohort status were included in the control group (n=40) according to the nested case-control study. Independent sample t-test and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the factors affecting the occurrence of complications after ventilatory treatment.
Results: There were statistically significant differences in multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS), partial pressure of oxygen/fraction of inspired oxygen (PaO2/FiO2), partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2), serum creatinine (SCr), albumin (ALB), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), mechanical ventilation time, mean article pressure (MAP), tidal volume (VT), positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP), PCIS, PEWS between the control group and the experimental group (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that MODS, PaO2/FiO2, PaCO2, VT, PEEP and PEWS had influence on complications after mechanical ventilation in children with ARDS (all P<0.05).
Conclusion: The MODS, PaO2/FiO2, PaCO2, VT, PEEP, and PEWS exert effects on complications after mechanical ventilation in children with ARDS. PEWS combined with other indicators can assess the risk of complications in children with ARDS after mechanical ventilation.
