| Résumé : |
Research Question: What nutritional variables in the first 4 days of pediatric intensive care unit stay predict 60-day mortality and time to discharge alive from the pediatric intensive care unit in critically ill children?
Key Findings: Single-center, prospective observational study of 199 critically ill children. After adjusting for sex, age, Pediatric Index of Mortality 2, and complex chronic conditions, undernutrition, based on body mass index-for-age, mid-upper arm circumference-for-age, and triceps skinfold thickness-for-age, was predictive of 60-day mortality. Using the same adjustment model, undernutrition by mid-upper arm circumference-for-age was predictive of longer time to discharge alive from the pediatric intensive care unit. |
