Neurodevelopmental disorders in the PICU population.
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), affecting 11% of children and adolescents, increases risk for injury and may predispose children to illness. However, the prevalence of ADHD and other developmental disorders in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) has not been previously studied. In this study, the investigators performed a single-center, prospective cohort study of children aged 6 to 12 years who were hospitalized in the PICU from May through August 2016.

Clinical impact of external laryngeal manipulation during laryngoscopy on tracheal intubation success in critically ill children.
In this retrospective observational study, the objective was to evaluate the association between external laryngeal manipulation use and initial tracheal intubation attempt success in pediatric ICUs. The investigators found that external laryngeal manipulation during direct laryngoscopy was associated with lower initial tracheal intubation attempt success in critically ill children, even after adjusting for underlying differences in patient factors and provider levels. They asserted that the indiscriminate use of external laryngeal manipulation cannot be recommended.
