Gastroesophageal reflux in mechanically ventilated pediatric patients and its relation to ventilator-associated pneumonia
Critical Care, 10/27/09

Gawad TAA et al. – GER is a constant incident in mechanically ventilated pediatric patients, with alkaline reflux being more common than acidic reflux.

Moreover, acidic reflux was found to be more related to mortality than alkaline reflux.
