Abstract:
The transport pediatric early warning score ( TPEWS) is a scoring tool for critically ill referrals. It could be used as a common language for inter ̄hospital referrals to help the referral team accurately evaluate the severity of the referral′s condition and applied to emergency transshipment centers to help the transfer center prioritize the order of referrals which could make sufficient use of medicl resources. It also could be applied to assess whether the child needed hospitalization in the emergency department which could help to reduce the workload of the emergency department. This paper describes the development process of TPEWS and application status.
