Higher pulmonary dead space may predict prolonged mechanical ventilation after cardiac surgery

Children undergoing congenital heart surgery are at risk for prolonged mechanical ventilation and length of hospital stay. We investigated the prognostic value of pulmonary dead space fraction as a non‐invasive, physiologic marker in this population. In a prospective, cross‐sectional study, we measu...
