Abstract:
The pediatric risk of mortality Ⅲ(PRISM Ⅲ) score and pediatric critical illness score(PCIS) are physiology-based scores for assessing the severity of illness and mortality risk in pediatric patients.The PRISM Ⅲscore was revised version of the PRISM and was first developed in 1996.It includes 17 physiologic variables subdivided into 26 ranges.It had been validated by numerous studies worldwide and is the most widely known and used at pediatrics intensive care unit(PICU).The PCIS was first developed in 1995 in China,which included 10 physiologic variables.It had been validated by numerous studies nationwide and was simple,effective and suitable to Chinese situations.The scoring systems also can be used for quality assessments,grading the severity of illness in clinical study,and(stu)-dies of ICU resource utilization and management.There were no such study for validating the PRISM Ⅲ at present,comparing the performance of the PRISM Ⅲ score and the PCIS in China.
