Management of acute lung injury and acute respiratory distress syndrome in children.

abstract：OBJECTIVES:Less than half of the thousands of children who suffer in-hospital cardiac arrests annually survive, and neurologic injury is common among survivors. Hemodynamic-directed cardiopulmonary resuscitation improves short-term survival, but its impact on longer term survival and mitochondrial respiration-a potenti...
