Ames, S.G., Davis, B.S., Marin, J., et al. (2019). Emergency Department Pediatric Readiness and Mortality in Critically Ill Children. (Abstract only.) American Academy of Pediatrics. 144(3).
The authors conducted a retrospective study on 20,483 critically ill children presenting to 426 hospitals in five states. Patients ranged from 0 to 18 years old and either required intensive care admission or experienced death during the visit. Statistical analysis revealed decreased mortality rates associated with increased pediatric readiness scores.
