Abstract

The aim of the study is to examine the relationship between fluid overload (FO) and severity of respiratory dysfunction in children post-hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) with pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (PARDS). This investigation was a secondary analysis of a multicenter retrospective cohort of children (1month to 21 years) post-allogeneic HCT with PARDS receiving invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) from 2009 to 2014. Daily FO % (FO%) and daily oxygenation index (OI) were calculated for each patient up to the first week of IMV (day 0 = intubation). Linear mixed-effect regression was employed to examine whether FO% and OI were associated on any day during the study period. In total, 158 patients were included. Severe PARDS represented 63% of the cohort and had higher mortality (78 vs. 42%, p <0.001), fewer ventilator free days at 28 (0 [IQR 0–0] vs. 14 [IQR 0–23], p <0.001), and 60 days (0 [IQR 0–27] v. 45 [IQR 0–55], p <0.001) relative to non-severe PARDS. Increasing FO% was strongly associated with higher OI (p <0.001). For children with 10% FO, OI was higher by nearly 5 points (adjusted β 4.6, 95% CI [2.9, 6.3]). In subgroup analyses, the association between FO% and OI was strongest among severe PARDS (p <0.001) and during the first 3 days elapsed from intubation (p <0.001). FO% was associated with lower PaO2/FiO2 (adjusted β −1.92, 95% CI [−3.11, −0.73], p = 0.002), but not mean airway pressure (p = 0.746). In a multicenter cohort of children post-HCT with PARDS, FO was independently associated with oxygenation impairment. The associations were strongest among children with severe PARDS and early in the course of IMV.
