Pediatric intensive care units (PICUs) have been developed to provide intensive care for children between post-neonatal age and adolescence. These units have largely been developed in North America, mainly in tertiary hospitals. In Italy, critically ill children are still often nursed on adult ICU's, where medical and nursing staff often lack pediatric training. Here we report the first 5-year experience of the multidisciplinary PICU developed at the Department of Pediatrics, University of Padua, focusing on PICU and patients characteristics, as well as on the evaluation of outcome by means of the Pediatric Risk of Mortality (PRISM) score.
儿科重症监护病房（PICUs）旨在为出生后至青春期的儿童提供重症监护。这些病房主要在北美发展起来，大多位于三级医院。在意大利，危重症儿童仍常常在成人重症监护病房接受护理，那里的医护人员往往缺乏儿科培训经验。在此，我们报告帕多瓦大学儿科学系多学科儿科重症监护病房的首个5年经验，重点关注儿科重症监护病房及患者特征，以及通过儿科死亡风险（PRISM）评分对治疗结果进行评估。
