Indeed, it is estimated that 10% of children hospitalized for AB will require intensive care, with lengths of stay ranging from several days to several weeks. It is therefore crucial to identify those patients at highest risk of severe disease in order to provide the best management options and potentially decrease morbidity. Recently, the prognostic value of the TAPSE (Tricuspid Annular Plane Systolic Excursion), a marker of right ventricle systolic dysfunction, has been demonstrated in adults suffering from SARS-Cov-2 pneumoniae. Indeed, several studies identify a decrease in TAPSE as a marker associated with an increased mortality among patients hospitalized in ICU with SARS Cov-2 pneumoniae. Moreover, some pediatric studies suggest that pulmonary pressures and right ventricular function could be impaired in AB, and thus associated with a less favorable outcome. None of these studies has specifically investigated the TAPSE as a predictor of severity in AB. To address this question, we plan to conduct a prospective study among children admitted to PICU with AB, and evaluate the association between the TAPSE value at PICU admission, and the PICU length of stay. Patients included in the study, will undergo a systematic echocardiographic assessment with measurement of the TAPSE, within the first 36 hours of admission in PICU for AB. They will then be followed until discharge of hospital, or the occurrence of death, or until the end of the inclusion period. If, during the follow-up period, intubation for invasive ventilation is required, a second echocardiographic assessment will be performed, with measurement of the TAPSE, in order to compare it to the initial value, in secondary analysis for exploratory purposes.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD'], 'maximumAge': '2 Years', 'minimumAge': '0 Months', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Infants under the age of 2\n* Admitted to PICU with diagnosis of acute bronchiolitis (according to AAP criteria)\n* Within the first 36h of PICU stay\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Patients suffering from Chronic Heart Disease, chronic respiratory disease (including bronchopulmonary dysplasia and excluding asthma)\n* Impairment of echocardiographic window'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT07209956', 'acronym': 'PROTECT', 'briefTitle': "Etude PROTECT : Prognostic Role of Tapse Evaluation in Children's bronchioliTis", 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'University Hospital, Bordeaux'}, 'officialTitle': "Evaluation de la Valeur Pronostique du TAPSE (Tricuspid Plane Annular Systolic Excursion) Dans la Bronchiolite aigüe sévère Chez l'Enfant hospitalisé en réanimation ou Soins Continus pédiatriques", 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'CHUBX 2022/17'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'TAPSE marker', 'description': 'At every admission in PICU for acute bronchiolitis, a screening for inclusion and exclusion factors will be carried out by an investigator.
