Abstract
Negative-pressure ventilation (NPV) is a form of noninvasive ventilation that has been recently utilized in pediatric acute respiratory failure. Negative-pressure ventilators apply negative pressure onto the chest wall via a cuirass to recruit areas of atelectasis. Continuous negative extrathoracic pressure, the most common mode, is similar to CPAP, where negative pressure is maintained at a constant level throughout the respiratory cycle while patients initiate their own breaths and continue to breathe spontaneously throughout. Control mode, which is similar to bi-level positive airway pressure, alternates negative pressure with positive pressure and controls both phases of breathing at a mandatory frequency set higher than the patient's spontaneous frequency. Supplemental oxygen is provided through a nasal cannula or face mask due of the lack of NPV devices' interface with the mouth or nose. NPV can improve preload to the heart and cardiac output (CO) in patients with restrictive right-ventricular physiology requiring CO augmentation and those with Fontan physiology. The purpose of this article is to review the physiological principles of spontaneous and NPV, examine the evidence supporting the use of NPV, give practical and meaningful guidance on its clinical application in the pediatric ICU, and summarize areas for future studies on its uses.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Extremes of patient body mass index are associated with difficult intubation and increased morbidity in adults. We aimed to determine the association between being underweight or obese with adverse airway outcomes, including adverse tracheal intubation (TI)-associated events (TIAEs) and/or severe peri-intubation hypoxemia (pulse oximetry oxygen saturation < 80%) in critically ill children. DESIGN/SETTING Retrospective cohort using the National Emergency Airway for Children registry dataset of 2013-2020. PATIENTS Critically ill children, 0 to 17 years old, undergoing TI in PICUs. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Registry data from 24,342 patients who underwent TI between 2013 and 2020 were analyzed. Patients were categorized using the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention weight-for-age chart: normal weight (5th-84th percentile) 57.1%, underweight (< 5th percentile) 27.5%, overweight (85th to < 95th percentile) 7.2%, and obese (≥ 95th percentile) 8.2%. Underweight was most common in infants (34%); obesity was most common in children older than 8 years old (15.1%). Underweight patients more often had oxygenation and ventilation failure (34.0%, 36.2%, respectively) as the indication for TI and a history of difficult airway (16.7%). Apneic oxygenation was used more often in overweight and obese patients (19.1%, 19.6%) than in underweight or normal weight patients (14.1%, 17.1%; p < 0.001). TIAEs and/or hypoxemia occurred more often in underweight (27.1%) and obese (24.3%) patients ( p < 0.001). TI in underweight children was associated with greater odds of adverse airway outcome compared with normal weight children after adjusting for potential confounders (underweight: adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 1.09; 95% CI, 1.01-1.18; p = 0.016). Both underweight and obesity were associated with hypoxemia after adjusting for covariates and site clustering (underweight: aOR, 1.11; 95% CI, 1.02-1.21; p = 0.01 and obesity: aOR, 1.22; 95% CI, 1.07-1.39; p = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS In underweight and obese children compared with normal weight children, procedures around the timing of TI are associated with greater odds of adverse airway events.

Abstract
Sudden cardiac arrest is an uncommon event with high morbidity and mortality. There are improved outcomes with early access to an automated external defibrillator and cardiopulmonary resuscitation. We assessed the availability of automated external defibrillators and emergency cardiac arrest plans in schools. A cross-sectional electronic survey was conducted to determine the status of emergency cardiac arrest plans and automated external defibrillator presence. Most schools (88%) had access to an automated external defibrillator; however, trained staff and maintenance plans were highly variable. Automated external defibrillator availability did not differ by racial/ethnic or socio-economic composition; however, there was a relationship between number of automated external defibrillators and student population (p = 0.0030). The majority of schools either did not have (28%) or did not know if they had (36%) an emergency cardiac arrest plan. Even without state legislation, automated external defibrillators were largely available in schools. However, there remains a paucity of emergency cardiac arrest plans and automated external defibrillator maintenance plans.

Abstract
Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic has introduced countless challenges to the medical field and has brought increased attention to pediatric patients with pre-existing diagnoses such as diabetes. While pediatric patients have lower rates of COVID-19 mortality, the presence of pre-existing conditions can heighten the severity of their clinical presentation. Here we discuss how COVID-19 may contribute to the pathophysiology of DKA. Case Presentation: Our patient is a 6-year old female with known type 1 diabetes for 6 months, with positive GAD 0.25 nmol/L, c-peptide 0.3 ng/ml, blood glucose 555 mg/dl, HbA1c 10.9, beta hydroxybutyrate (βOHB) 3.21mmol/l, pH 7.35, HCO3 21 mEq/L at her initial presentation, and insulin requirement <0.5 IU/kg/day (in honeymoon). She presented to an outside hospital due to acute onset of abnormal breathing and altered mental status. The day prior, she had one episode of emesis, diarrhea, and abdominal pain, but no fever. She was reported to be agonal breathing with a GCS of 8 and unresponsive to physical or verbal stimuli. She was intubated shortly after arrival and given mannitol. Initial labs included a glucose 486 mg/dL, pH 6.88, bicarbonate 4 mEq/L, lactate 5.8 mmol/L, βOHB 11.9 mmol/L, and anion gap 29 mEq/L, all consistent with severe DKA. With a known family member with COVID-19, she was tested and found to be COVID-19 positive. She was transferred via flight to a higher level of care. Remarkably, she was appropriate for extubation the following day with return to her baseline mental status with improved acidosis. On day three of hospitalization, she developed further COVID-19 symptoms which included sore throat, productive cough, fatigue, headache, and high fever. These symptoms persisted four more days until she was afebrile and discharged home in good condition. Conclusion: Our patient’s rapid progression and severity of illness, including the need for intubation, requires the discussion of how COVID-19 might affect diabetes and suggests opportunities for improvement in clinical practice in children with preexisting diabetes. 1) COVID-19 might change the underlying pathophysiology and cause severe metabolic complications. Possible mechanisms might include a) binding to angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptors, which are expressed in key metabolic organs and tissues, including pancreatic beta cells, leading to insulin resistance and islet cell destruction b) enabling a proinflammatory “cytokine storm” in the setting of higher basal proinflammatory state from diabetes. Additionally, ketoacidosis and altered mental status have been discovered in patients with COVID-19 without diabetes, which could potentiate the symptoms of DKA. 2) Prompt recognition and treatment of DKA is warranted as caregivers may attribute the symptoms to COVID-19 rather than DKA and recognition could be too late if symptoms are as acute as described in this case report.
