The March 2024 issue features articles on the use of prognostication models for critically ill children in locations with limited resources, the use of noninvasive neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NIV-NAVA) in infants with bronchiolitis, and the development and validation of a model to predict endotracheal intubation in pediatric intensive care unit patients. Clinical investigation articles explore the use of ultrasound preextubation in patients intubated with cuffed endotracheal tubes; a comparative analysis of the severity of illness scores of organ dysfunction in children with blood culture-proven sepsis; and cognitive, functional, and quality of life outcomes in patients six months after being hospitalized for bronchiolitis. Neurocritical care articles explore neurologic and functional outcomes after traumatic brain injury and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, as well as death by neurologic criteria and withdrawal of life-sustaining therapies after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. The cardiac intensive care article analyzes the association of chylothorax with fluid overload after cardiac surgery in neonates with congenital heart disease.
