Characteristics and outcomes of children receiving intensive care therapy within 12 hours following a medical emergency team event. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • A study analyzed 890 medical emergency team (MET) events involving 566 children at a specialized pediatric hospital between July 2017 and March 2019, finding that 21% led to intensive care admissions.
  • Among those admitted, 42% required intensive care therapy (ICT), mainly positive pressure ventilation or vasoactive support, within 12 hours.
  • Younger children (under 1 year) faced a higher risk of needing ICT, particularly during critical events, and this group experienced longer hospital stays and increased mortality compared to older children.

Article Abstract

To describe characteristics and outcomes of children requiring intensive care therapy (ICT) within 12 hours following a medical emergency team (MET) event. Retrospective cohort study. Quaternary paediatric hospital. Children experiencing a MET event. Between July 2017 and March 2019, 890 MET events occurred in 566 patients over 631 admissions. Admission to intensive care followed 183/890 (21%) MET events. 76/183 (42%) patients required ICT, defined as positive pressure ventilation or vasoactive support in intensive care, within 12 hours. Older children had a lower risk of requiring ICT than infants aged < 1 year (age 1-5 years [risk difference, -6.4%; 95% CI, -11% to -1.6%; = 0.01] age > 5 years [risk difference, -8.0%; 95% CI, -12% to -3.8%; < 0.001]), while experiencing a critical event increased this risk (risk difference, 16%; 95% CI, 3.3-29%; = 0.01). The duration of respiratory support and intensive care length of stay was approximately double in patients requiring ICT (ratio of geometric means, 2.0 [95% CI, 1.4-3.0] 2.1 [95% CI, 1.5-2.8]; < 0.001) and the intensive care mortality increased (risk difference, 9.6%; 95% CI, 2.4-17%; = 0.01). Heart rate, oxygen saturation and respiratory rate were the most commonly measured vital signs in the 6 hours before the MET event. Approximately one-fifth of MET events resulted in intensive care admission and nearly half of these required ICT within 12 hours. This group had greater duration of respiratory support, intensive care and hospital length of stay, and higher mortality. Age < 1 year and a critical event increased the risk of ICT.
