Significant muscle wasting develops in critically ill adults, with subsequent worse outcomes. In the pediatric setting, occurrence and effects of muscle wasting are undescribed; this is in part due to a lack of validated, objective methods for assessing muscle wasting. A single measurement of quadriceps femoris thickness has failed to show consistent eproducibility. . Une atrophie musculaire importante se développe chez les adultes gravement malades, avec des conséquences plus graves. Dans le contexte pédiatrique, l'occurrence et les effets de l'atrophie musculaire ne sont pas décrits; ceci est dû en partie au manque de méthodes validées et objectives pour évaluer l'atrophie musculaire. Une seule mesure de l'épaisseur du quadriceps femoris n'a pas réussi à montrer une reproductibilité constante.
