Abstract | Objective: Severity of illness scoring during pediatric critical care transport may provide objective data to determine illness trajectory and disposition and contribute to quality assurance data for pediatric transport programs. The objective of this study was to ascertain the breadth of severity of illness scoring tool application among North American pediatric critical care transport teams. Methods: A cross-sectional quantitative survey using REDCap was distributed to 137 North American pediatric transport programs. Baseline team characteristics were established along with questions related to severity of illness tool application.Descriptive statistics were used for analysis. Results: There were 55 responses (40%), and of those, 13 (24%) use a severity of illness scoring tool within their practice. A variety of tools were used including: Transport Risk Index of Physiologic Stability, Children's Hospital Medical Center Cincinnati, Canadian Triage and Acuity Score, Transport Risk Assessment in Pediatrics, Pediatric Early Warning Scores, Levels of Acuity, Transport Pediatric Early Warning Scores, and an unspecified tool. The timing of scoring, team personnel who applied the score, and the frequency of analysis varied between transport programs. Conclusions: Severity of illness scoring is not consistently performed by pediatric interfacility transport programs in North America. Among the programs that use a scoring tool, there is variability in its application. There is no universally accepted or performed severity of illness scoring tool for pediatric interfacility transport.Future research to validate and standardize a pediatric transport severity of illness scoring tool for North America is necessary. |
