Noninvasive mechanical ventilation is the main supportive measure used in patients with pediatric ARDS (PARDS), but adjunctive pharmacological therapies (corticosteroids, inhaled nitric oxide [iNO], surfactant replacement therapy and neuromuscular blocking drugs) are also used, although limited data exists to inform of this practice. The authors review the current challenges in the pharmacological management of PARDS and highlight the few certainties currently available. Children with PARDS must not be treated as young adults with ARDS, essentially because children’s lungs differ substantially from those of adults and PARDS occurs in children differently than ARDS in adults. Pharmacological treatments available for PARDS are relatively few and, since there is great uncertainty about their effectiveness also because of the extreme heterogeneity of this syndrome, it is necessary to conduct large clinical trials using currently available definitions and considering recent pathobiological knowledge. The aim is to identify homogeneous subgroups or phenotypes of children with PARDS that may benefit from the specific pharmaceutical approach examined. It will be then necessary to link endotypes and outcomes to appropriately target therapies in future trials, but this will be possible only after it will be possible to identify the different PARDS endotypes.
