OBJECTIVE: To assess the safety and efficacy of a recruitment maneuver, the Open Lung Tool, in pediatric patients with acute lung injury and acute respiratory distress syndrome. DESIGN: Prospective cohort study using a repeated-measures design. SETTING: Pediatric intensive care unit at an urban tertiary children's hospital. PATIENTS: Twenty-one ventilated pediatric patients with acute lung injury. INTERVENTION: Recruitment maneuver using incremental positive end-expiratory pressure. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: The ratio of partial pressure of arterial oxygen over fraction of inspired oxygen (Pao2/Fio2 ratio) increased 53% immediately after the recruitment maneuver. The median Pao2/Fio2 ratio increased from 111 (interquartile range, 73-266) prerecruitment maneuver to 170 (interquartile range, 102-341) immediately postrecruitment maneuver (p < .01). Improvement in Pao2/Fio2 ratio persisted with an increase of 80% over the baseline at 4 hrs and 40% at 12 hrs after the recruitment maneuver. The median Pao2/Fio2 ratio was 200 (interquartile range, 116-257) 4 hrs postrecruitment maneuver (p < .05) and 156 (interquartile range, 127-236) 12 hrs postrecruitment maneuver (p < .01). Compared with prerecruitment maneuver, the partial pressure of arterial carbon dioxide (Paco2) was significantly decreased at 4 hrs postrecruitment maneuver but not immediately after the recruitment maneuver. The median Paco2 was 49 torr (interquartile range, 44-60) prerecruitment maneuver compared with 48 torr (interquartile range, 43-50) immediately postrecruitment maneuver (p = .69), 45 torr (interquartile range, 41-50) at 4 hrs postrecruitment maneuver (p < .01), and 43 torr (interquartile range, 38-51) at 12 hrs postrecruitment maneuver. Recruitment maneuvers were well tolerated except for significant increase in Paco2 in three patients. There were no serious adverse events related to the recruitment maneuver. CONCLUSIONS: Using the modified open lung tool recruitment maneuver, pediatric patients with acute lung injury may safely achieve improved oxygenation and ventilation with these benefits potentially lasting up to 12 hrs postrecruitment maneuver.
