It is an observational retrospective study conducted after obtaining the approval from the clinical research ethics committee. The clinical reports of whose patients who died in the PICU from January 1 2006 through December 31 2016 were reviewed. The variables collected were: epidemiological, presence of underlying disease prior to PICU admission, cause for admission, care received (hemodynamic, respiratory, renal, antimicrobial, hematological and nutritional), main cause of death, days of stay at the PICU, day of admission, and adaptation of life support (cause, referral activity, and participation of the family in end-of-life care). A descriptive analysis of the answers was conducted using the SPSS<span class="elsevierStyleSup">®</span> 19.0 software for Windows. Qualitative data were expressed as absolute frequencies and percentages, and quantitative data as means and interquartile ranges or as means and standard deviations based on the characteristics of the variable under analysis.

The reason why the ATE was implemented had to do with both the irreversibility of the disease that prompted the PICU admission (in 18 out of 41 patients) and the poor prognosis of the underlying disease (in 12 out of 41 patients). Both the hemodynamic and the ventilatory support were withdrawn in 8/41 patients. Measures focused on well-being, sedation and analgesia were a priority in 7/41 patients. It was decided not to implement any new extraordinary measures in 6/41 patients and in 4/41 patients any pharmacological therapy not aimed at improving the patient's well-being was withdrawn. In 16 patients, the therapeutic remains unknown. The family was informed at all time and involved in the decision-making process in 29/41 patients.</p><p id="par0045" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In the series provided more than half of the patients who died suffered from hemato-oncological disease. In these, the HPCT was a prior common event.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0060"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">5</span></a> In turn, the ATE is often reported in patients with a prior condition and it would determine their prognosis prior to their referral to the PICU.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0050"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3,6</span></a></p><p id="par0050" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">This decision was barely reported in healthy children or in severe and acute processes with a quick resolution.</p><p id="par0055" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The ATE was associated with longer hospital stays. Although we do not mean to say that in order to consider the ATE it was required that a “certain amount of time” would need to pass, it does seem that this aspect was key in the decision-making process. Refractory hypoxemia was the main cause of death in the group of patients where the ATE was reported.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0065"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">6</span></a> Parents and caregivers were included in more than half the cases of ATE. It is well known that its perspective influences the therapeutic goal and defines well-being as a priority.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0055"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">4,7</span></a></p><p id="par0060" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">This study has some limitations though. Except for epidemiological data, the remaining data were not collected thoroughly. They do not even include information on severity assessment scales at admission and in 4 patients no variable could be collected for the study. It would certainly be interesting to collect prospective and multicenter data with the exact time and moment when each change is implemented in the decision-making process.</p><p id="par0065" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In sum, given the specific conditions of our center, patients with onco-hematological conditions and, in particular, those with a prior history of HPCT are the main group of patients where the ATE was reported. Mainly, it was associated with long hospital stays, being the inotropic drug and ventilatory support withdrawal the most common measures implemented. We hope that this study will revitalize the debate and increase our actual knowledge on the ATE in the PICUs of our country. The creation of a national registry on this regard not only seems interesting but necessary.</p></span>" "pdfFichero" => "main.pdf" "tienePdf" => true "NotaPie" => array:1 [ 0 => array:2 [ "etiqueta" => "☆" "nota" => "<p class="elsevierStyleNotepara" id="npar0005">Please cite this article as: Leoz Gordillo I, García-Salido A, Niño Taravilla C, de Lama Caro-Patón G, Iglesias Bouzas MI, Serrano González A.
