Prism score of pediatric mortality 1
Prism score of pediatric mortalityThe Pediatric Risk of Mortality (PRISM) score was developed from the Physiologic Stability Index (PSI)[1] toreduce the number of physiologic variables required for pediatric intensive-care unit (PICU) mortality riskassessment, from 34 (in the PSI) to 14,[2] and to obtain an objective weighting of the remaining variables.PRISM III, an updated version of the scoring system published in 1996, has several improvements over the originalPRISM. However, it is only available under licence and is not widely used outside of the United States.[3]
PRISM III score has 17 physiologic variables subdivided into 26 ranges. The variables most predictive of mortalitywere minimum systolic blood pressure, abnormal pupillary reflexes, and stupor/coma.
