Abstract

BACKGROUND

Early warning scores (EWS) generated in a developed healthcare setting may not perform as well in low-resource settings in sub-Saharan Africa.

METHOD

The performance of EWS used in developed world was compared with those generated in low-resource settings in sub-Saharan Africa.

RESULTS

When tested on 1,266 acutely ill patients consecutively admitted to a low-resource Ugandan hospital there was no statistical difference in the performance of any of the EWS tested. The performance of all the scores appeared to be improved by the addition of mobility assessment. Although statistically insignificant, the National Early Warning Score with extra points added for impaired mobility had the highest discrimination and sensitivity.

CONCLUSION

There were only marginal and no statistical differences in the performance of EWS generated in low- and high-resource healthcare settings in a cohort of unselected acutely ill medical patients admitted to a low-resource hospital in sub-Saharan Africa.

摘要

背景

在发达医疗环境中生成的早期预警评分(EWS)在撒哈拉以南非洲的低资源环境中可能表现不佳。

方法

将发达国家使用的EWS的性能与撒哈拉以南非洲低资源环境中生成的EWS进行比较。

结果

在一家资源匮乏的乌干达医院连续收治的1266例急性病患者身上进行测试时,所测试的任何EWS的性能均无统计学差异。通过增加活动能力评估,所有评分的性能似乎都有所提高。尽管在统计学上不显著,但为活动能力受损额外加分的国家早期预警评分具有最高的辨别力和敏感性。

结论

在撒哈拉以南非洲一家资源匮乏医院收治的一组未经挑选的急性病内科患者中,低资源和高资源医疗环境中生成的EWS的性能仅有微小差异,且无统计学差异。
