Nutritional Disorder Clinical Trial
Official title:
the Impact of Nutritional Status on Clinical Outcome of Children Admitted in PICU OF Assuit Children University Hospital
Malnutrition is believed to be associated with clinical outcomes in ill patients and several
studies have shown that nutrition status play a major role in disease prognosis in adults .
Different authors have described an increase in morbidity and mortality attributable to
malnutrition, as it lead to state of partial immunosuppression, delay wound healing ,causes
muscular atrophy and increase length of stay.
Several studies have investigated the predictive role of an extremely low body weight on
disease prognosis and outcomes among general and critically ill children .They enrolled all
patients consecutively admitted to pediatric intensive care unit PICU) , therefore , being
underweight may have resulted from endocrine diseases, genetic syndromes or other systemic
underlying illnesses .
The impact of low body weight on outcomes of acutely critically ill but previously healthy
children is still unknown.
Many studies evaluate the clinical status and outcome by pediatric index of mortality (PIM2)
as a popular and reliable predictive score .
In this study, we will investigate the impact of being underweight or proper weight on
mortality and morbidity among acute critically ill children with no genetic, endocrine, or
chronic systemic illness at PICU admission
