Résumé
Background
Setting appropriate positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is central to the management of pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (PARDS). Arterial blood gas (ABG)-based monitoring during recruitment maneuvers (RM) is invasive, whereas lung ultrasonography (LUS) is a non-invasive bedside modality that may quantify aeration changes in real time.
