Measurement of the level of human atrial natriuretic peptide was determined in the serum of patients. Cardiac power (CP) is a cardiac function parameter measured with cardiac output (cardiovascular flow) and mean arterial (intravascular) pressure. Cardiac output and mean arterial pressure were monitored using pressure recording analytical methods (PRAM). Hemodynamic status was represented by a vasoactive inotropic score.Results: Thirty pediatric septic shock patients fulfilled the eligibility criteria. The human ANP level was not significantly different in pediatric septic shock on three days of examination. Cardiac power was significantly different in pediatric septic shock on three days of examination. There was a correlation between human ANP and cardiac power on day 3 and human ANP and VIS on day 2.Conclusion: There was a significant correlation between human ANP level and cardiac power on day 3 and ANP level and VIS on day 2. The cardiac power on day 3 and VIS on 48 hours can be alternatives to evaluate the hemodynamic status and cardiac function concerning human ANP in pediatric septic shock.Keywords: Human Atrial Natriuretic Peptide, cardiac power, vasoactive inotropic score, pediatric septic shock
