Seiger N, van Veen M, Almeida H, et al., 2014, Improving the manchester triage system for pediatric emergency care: an international multicenter study, PLOS One, Vol: 9, ISSN: 1932-6203
ObjectivesThis multicenter study examines the performance of the Manchester Triage System (MTS) after changing discriminators, and with the addition use of abnormal vital sign in patients presenting to pediatric emergency departments (EDs).DesignInternational multicenter studySettingsEDs of two hospitals in The Netherlands (2006–2009), one in Portugal (November–December 2010), and one in UK (June–November 2010).PatientsChildren (<16years) triaged with the MTS who presented at the ED.MethodsChanges to discriminators (MTS 1) and the value of including abnormal vital signs (MTS 2) were studied to test if this would decrease the number of incorrect assignment. Admission to hospital using the new MTS was compared with those in the original MTS. Likelihood ratios, diagnostic odds ratios (DORs), and c-statistics were calculated as measures for performance and compared with the original MTS. To calculate likelihood ratios and DORs, the MTS had to be dichotomized in low urgent and high urgent.Results60,375 patients were included, of whom 13% were admitted. When MTS 1 was used, admission to hospital increased from 25% to 29% for MTS ‘very urgent’ patients and remained similar in lower MTS urgency levels. The diagnostic odds ratio improved from 4.8 (95%CI 4.5–5.1) to 6.2 (95%CI 5.9–6.6) and the c-statistic remained 0.74. MTS 2 did not improve the performance of the MTS.ConclusionsMTS 1 performed slightly better than the original MTS. The use of vital signs (MTS 2) did not improve the MTS performance.

Van de Voorde P, Emerson B, Gomez B, et al., 2013, Paediatric community-acquired septic shock: results from the REPEM network study, EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF PEDIATRICS, Vol: 172, Pages: 667-674, ISSN: 0340-6199
Introduction and purpose of the studyWith this study we aimed to describe a “true world” picture of severe paediatric ‘community-acquired’ septic shock and establish the feasibility of a future prospective trial on early goal-directed therapy in children. During a 6-month to 1-year retrospective screening period in 16 emergency departments (ED) in 12 different countries, all children with severe sepsis and signs of decreased perfusion were included.ResultsA 270,461 paediatric ED consultations were screened, and 176 cases were identified. Significant comorbidity was present in 35.8 % of these cases. Intensive care admission was deemed necessary in 65.7 %, mechanical ventilation in 25.9 % and vasoactive medications in 42.9 %. The median amount of fluid given in the first 6 h was 30 ml/kg. The overall mortality in this sample was 4.5 %. Only 1.2 % of the survivors showed a substantial decrease in Paediatric Overall Performance Category (POPC). ‘Severe’ outcome (death or a decrease ≥2 in POPC) was significantly related (p < 0.01) to: any desaturation below 90 %, the amount of fluid given in the first 6 h, the need for and length of mechanical ventilation or vasoactive support, the use of dobutamine and a higher lactate or lower base excess but not to any variables of predisposition, infection or host response (as in the PIRO (Predisposition, Infection, Response, Organ dysfunction) concept).ConclusionThe outcome in our sample was very good. Many children received treatment early in their disease course, so avoiding subsequent intensive care. While certain variables predispose children to become septic and shocked, in our sample, only measures of organ dysfunction and concomitant treatment proved to be significantly related with outcome. We argue why future studies should rather be large multinational prospective observational trials and not necessarily randomised controlled trials.
Cleugh FM, Maconochie IK, 2013, Management of the multiply injured child, Paediatrics and Child Health (United Kingdom), Vol: 23, Pages: 194-199, ISSN: 1751-7222
Injury is the commonest cause of death and morbidity in children and accounts for most attendances at paediatric emergency departments. However, the incidence of major trauma in UK children remains low. Optimal management of the multiply injured child relies on anticipation and preparation, followed by a standardized, consistent and structured response from healthcare professionals. Initial management involves a primary survey with resuscitation, using an 'ABC' approach, and treatment of life-threatening injuries as they arise. The details of this are outlined in this review, highlighting important child-specific factors. Once stabilized, injured children must be assessed by secondary survey to rule out all possible injuries and, if necessary, transferred to an appropriate tertiary unit. Support from regionalized trauma networks and ongoing training for staff is paramount in optimizing outcome of the multiply injured child. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.
