Brief Summary
|
Pediatric
traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality,
necessitating accurate prognostic tools for early risk stratification.
Traditional tools like the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) and Pediatric Index of
Mortality 2 (PIM2) often fail to capture the complex metabolic and inflammatory
responses associated with TBI. Emerging biomarkers, such as the
lactate-to-albumin ratio (LAR) and C-reactive protein-to-albumin ratio (CAR),
offer a more nuanced evaluation of systemic inflammation, hypoperfusion, and
nutritional status. This study evaluates the utility of LAR and CAR as
prognostic markers for mortality in pediatric TBI, comparing their predictive
accuracy with GCS and PIM2. The findings aim to establish these markers as
cost-effective, accessible tools to enhance clinical decision-making and improve
outcomes, especially in resource-limited settings.By analyzing 18 months of data (July 2023–January 2025) from an ongoing ICMR project at AIIMS, New Delhi, the study compares LAR and CAR with existing prognostic markers. Key outcomes include mortality at 24 hours, 30 days, and 90 days, along with ICU stay, mechanical ventilation, and inotrope support, aiming to establish these biomarkers as cost-effective tools for clinical decision-making. |
