Predictors of Mortality in Children Admitted to the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit with Acute Gastroenteritis with Severe Dehydration
The objective of the present study was to identify risk factors for mortality at admission in children admitted to the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) with acute gastroenteritis (AGE) with severe dehydration and shock. This was a retrospective chart review of all cases of AGE with severe dehydration and shock admitted to the PICU from 2012 to 2017. Children who died during hospital stay were compared with those who survived. A total of 62 children were admitted with AGE to the PICU during this period. Twenty-four children (39%) died. The following variables were found to be significantly associated with death on univariate analysis: clinical pallor (p = 0.01), thrombocytopenia (p = 0.018), elevated leucocyte count (p = 0.02), hypoalbuminemia (p = 0.02) and severe acute malnutrition (SAM) (p = 0.04). On multivariate analysis, only hypoalbuminemia {RR [95% CI: 2.6 (1.27 to 9.21)]; 0.039} and SAM {RR [95% CI: 4.9 (1.12 to 10)]; 0.045} remained statistically significant. Children admitted with severe dehydration and shock had high mortality rates. These children were a sicker subset with probable sepsis. Severe acute malnutrition and hypoalbuminemia were associated with increased risk of death in these patients.
