Our goal was to measure the quality of care provided in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) during Therapeutic Apheresis (TA). We described the care as a step by step process. We designed a flow chart to carefully document each step of the proce

Therapeutic hypercapnia (TH), an intentional inhalation of CO(2), has been shown to improve pulmonary function in certain models of lung injury. We tested the null hypothesis that TH does not improve hyperoxic lung injury in neonatal rats. The prospe
