Etude PROTECT : Prognostic Role of Tapse Evaluation in Children's bronchioliTis
Sponsor: University Hospital, Bordeaux
Summary
In this prospective study, we aim to evaluate the association between an echocardiographic marker of right ventricular systolic function, the TAPSE (Tricuspid Annular Plane Systolic Excursion), and poor outcome in patients admitted to Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) for Acute Bronchiolitis (AB).

Interventions
Echocardiographic assessment of TAPSE
Non interventional study (study of a prognostic factor). The study procedure is the echocardiographic assessment of TAPSE at every admission in PICU for acute bronchiolitis. Transthoracic echocardiography is a non invasive, non radiative examination, that is usually performed at every admission in PICU, however not mandatory. Inclusion in the study will lead to a systematic echocardiographic assessment at admission, potentially adding this examination to the patient's course. As transthoracic echocardiography is systematically monitored in intubated children, no additional examination will be necessary for those requiring invasive mechanical ventilation.
