Multi-stakeholder perspectives into the experiences of siblings when a child is critically ill: A qualitative systematic review.

Objectives: A child's critical illness and admission to intensive care can have significant short- and long-term impacts for the parents and hospitalized child. While experiences of parents have been explored, the impact on siblings remains unclear. The aim was to systematically review and synthesize qualitative research exploring the experiences of siblings when a child is critically ill, from the perspectives of siblings and relevant key stakeholders.

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.
