Summary
The objective of this research is to analyze the overall incidence of complications associated with a therapeutic maneuver known as alveolar opening and subsequent titration of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) in pediatric patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). These procedures are part of the standard care provided in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) and are used to improve pulmonary oxygenation and respiratory mechanics. Through this study, we aim to gather information that will help improve the safety and effectiveness of these interventions in critically ill patients.
