Precision of weight measurement in critically ill infants: a technical report.

To investigate the precision of weight measurements in critically ill infants in a paediatric intensive care unit (PICU). Prospective cohort study. Royal Children's Hospital PICU.

A Clinical Score for Quantifying Edema in Mechanically Ventilated Children With Congenital Heart Disease in Intensive Care.

Unlabelled: Standardized clinical measurements of edema do not exist.

Objectives: To describe a 19-point clinical edema score (CES), investigate its interobserver agreement, and compare changes between such CES and body weight.

Design Setting And Participants: Prospective observational study in a tertiary PICU of mechanically ventilated children with congenital heart disease.

Agreement Between Measured Weight and Fluid Balance in Mechanically Ventilated Children in Intensive Care.

Objectives: To investigate the agreement between change in body weight (BW) and fluid balance (FB), and the precision and safety of BW measurement in mechanically ventilated infants in intensive care.

Design: Prospective observational study.

Setting: Tertiary PICU.
