Article Synopsis
- Rare diseases exhibit a diverse range of symptoms, affecting each patient uniquely and influencing their experiences across various life aspects.
- *The study aims to connect value co-creation, stakeholder theory, and shared decision-making to improve the relationships between patients and their stakeholders, focusing on enhancing the patient's quality of life.
- *The proposed theory emphasizes co-created decision-making, recognizing the importance of holistic care that involves all relationships and environments important to the patient, rather than just clinical interactions.*

Introduction: The ACCM/PALS guidelines address early correction of paediatric septic shock using conventional measures. In the evolution of these recommendations, indirect measures of the balance between systemic oxygen delivery and demands using central venous or superior vena cava oxygen saturation (ScvO(2) > or = 70%) in a goal-directed approach have been added. However, while these additional goal-directed endpoints are based on evidence-based adult studies, the extrapolation to the paediatric patient remains unvalidated.
