Abstract
With the advent of new life-sustaining treatments that need a tremendous number of resources, paediatric intensivists will be faced with increasingly complex and tough difficulties. The current study was performed to assess pediatric mortality using the pediatric risk of mortality (PRISM III-24). Patients of both genders admitted to the paediatric intensive care unit PICU between the ages of one month and eighteen years during the study period were included, while patients under one month of age with a PICU admission of fewer than two hours and multiple congenital abnormalities, as well as those discharged against medical advice, were excluded. Out of 94 patients, males (53.2%) were more than females, respiratory system disease was the major indication for admission, and the mortality assessed using PRISM III was 6.38%. The study observed a link between improved PICU quality of care and lower mortality rates, as well as a lower PRISM III score.
