Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 presents as symptomatic COVID-19 disease in susceptible patients. Severe pediatric COVID-19 disease is rare, limiting potential data accumulation on associated respiratory failure in children. Pediatric intensivists and pulmonologists managing COVID-19 patients look to adult guidelines and pediatric-specific consensus statements to guide management. The purpose of this article is to review the current literature and recommended strategies for escalation of non-invasive and invasive respiratory support for acute respiratory failure associated with COVID-19 disease in children. There are no prospective studies comparing COVID-19 treatment strategies in children. Adult and pediatric ventilation management interim guidance is based on evidence-based guidelines in non-COVID acute respiratory distress syndrome, with considerations of 1) non-invasive positive pressure ventilation versus high-flow nasal cannula and 2) high versus lower PEEP strategies related to lung compliance and potential lung recruitability. Management of acute respiratory failure from COVID-19 requires individualized titration of non-invasive and invasive ventilation modalities with consideration of preserved or compromised pulmonary compliance. Research regarding best practices in management of pediatric severe COVID-19 with respiratory failure is lacking and is acutely needed as the pandemic surges and vaccination of the pediatric population will be delayed compared to adults.
