What this Trial Is About
This research aims to improve care for critically ill children admitted to pediatric intensive care units (ICUs) across Asia. It will describe the health profiles and outcomes of these patients, identify risk factors linked to poorer results, and develop quality measures to compare ICU performance. The study will also create and train artificial intelligence models to predict mortality, length of ICU stay, and use of resources in this diverse pediatric population. The study will collect detailed data on patient demographics, clinical features, ICU treatments, quality indicators, and outcomes from multiple hospitals. It will follow a prospective observational design, recruiting all pediatric ICU admissions with allowance for random sampling in resource-limited sites. A subgroup analysis will focus on children with chronic complex conditions, who represent a significant portion of ICU admissions and resource use. Participants will be monitored throughout their ICU stay, with data collected on outcomes such as mortality at 28 and 60 days, ventilator use duration, ICU length of stay, infections, accidental extubations, thrombosis, and unplanned ICU readmissions. The study will analyze this information to enhance understanding of pediatric critical illness and guide improvements in ICU care. Recruitment will last one year per site, starting at different times depending on ethics approvals.
