Evaluation of the Resources and Inequities Among Pediatric Critical Care Facilities in Pakistan.

Objectives: To evaluate nationwide pediatric critical care facilities and resources in Pakistan.

Design: Cross-sectional observational study.

Setting: Accredited pediatric training facilities in Pakistan.

Performance of a Risk Analytic Tool (Index of Tissue Oxygen Delivery "IDO2") in Pediatric Cardiac Intensive Care Unit of a Developing Country.

Objective: To determine the performance of a commercially available risk analytic tool (IDO2) to estimate the risk for SVO2 < 40% in patients admitted in cardiac intensive care unit (CICU).

Methods: Medical and T3 records of all patients (aged 1 day to 12 years, weight >2 kg) who received care in the CICU between October 1st, 2019 and October 1st, 2020, had SvO2 lab(s) drawn during CICU course and whose data was transmitted to T3, were included. The average IDO2 Index was computed in the 30-min period immediately prior to each SvO2 measurement and used as a predictor score for SvO2 < 40%.
