The PICU of Sainte-Justine Hospital admits approximately 1 200 patients each year, with more than 65 % requiring mechanical ventilation. The most frequent admissions to the unit dealt with in the unit include head trauma (± 50/year), polytrauma (± 50), tetralogy of Fallot (± 30), ARDS (± 25), asthma (± 25), status epilepticus (± 25), intoxication (± 20), etc. About 30 patients per year are admitted after a transplantation. | |
