The goal of this worldwide observational study is to investigate ventilation practice in critically ill pediatric patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What is the global current practice of ventilatory support in critically ill pediatric patients? 2. Which potentially modifiable factors related to ventilation are associated with outcome? Participating pediatric intensive care units will gather detailed information about ventilation practice and outcome, such as duration of ventilatory support, length of ICU stay and ICU mortality.
