Published: June 2010

Mechanical ventilation is considered a supportive, nontherapeutic technology used to perform the work of breathing for patients who are unable to do so on their own. In neonatology, mechanical ventilation is often used for premature neonates who are unable to sustain ventilation because of reduced functional residual capacity due to surfactant deficiency. Mechanical ventilation is thus an attempt to mimic the respiratory system's physiological function of gas exchange until the respiratory system reaches maturation. In pediatrics, mechanical ventilation is rarely used for acute respiratory distress syndrome as shown by Dahlem et al. in 2003 who found that only 9.9% of cases of respiratory failure in PICU was caused by ARDS. For this reason, ventilatory techniques in PICU are very heterogenous from the assisted to the most aggressive controlled modes associated with ventilator maneuvers. There are no specific guidelines for the use of mechanical ventilation in children and the low number of infants with ARDS in PICU makes it difficult to run randomized controlled trials in this population. Thus the algorithms are based on the results of either adult or neonatal studies. The advantage of extrapolating data from the neonatal evidence relates mainly to the prevention of ventilator induced lung injury (e.g., CPAP, HFOV, NIV, permissive hypercapnia, surfattant), of which neonatologists are particularly expert.
