Introduction: Mortality in pediatric septic shock remains very high. Vasoactive-inotropic score (VIS) is widely used to predict prognosis in patients with heart disease. It is a simple method that was initially used as a predictor of morbidity and mortality in postoperative patients with congenital heart diseases. Previous reports showed that high VIS score was associated with high mortality in pediatric sepsis. However, its discriminative value remains unclear. We aim to explore the discriminative value of VIS in predicting mortality in pediatric septic shock patients. Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study on medical records of septic shock patients who received care in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). We screened medical records of pediatric patients which were diagnosed with septic shock and admitted to the PICU and received vasoactive/inotropic score for more than 8 h. Other supporting examination results were recorded, such as organ function evaluation for calculation of Pediatric Logistic Organ Dysfunction-2 (PELOD-2) score. The outcome of patients was recorded. The receiver operating curve was constructed to calculate the area under the curve (AUC), sensitivity, and specificity of each cutoff point. Results: We obtained the optimum cutoff point of VIS > 11 with 78.87% sensitivity and 72.22% specificity. AUC positive was 0.779 ( P < 0.001); predictive value and negative predictive value were 91.80% and 46.43%, respectively. Conclusion: VIS > 11 has a good ability to predict mortality in children with septic shock.

Latar belakang. Lupus eritematosus sistemik merupakan penyakit autoimun sistemik pada jaringan ikat yang bersifat kronik dan progresif, terutama pada anak. Hingga saat ini belum ada diagnosis baku emas, sehingga untuk menegakkan diagnosis dapat menggunakan kriteria The American College of Rheumatology (ACR) tahun 1997 atau The Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics (SLICC) tahun 2012.Tujuan. Mengumpulkan bukti ilmiah perbandingan penggunaan kriteria ACR-1997 dan SLICC-2012 dalam diagnosis lupus eritematosus sistemik pada anak.Metode. Penelusuran literatur secara sistematis secara daring melalui database Pubmed dan Cochrane. Analisis dilakukan menggunakan Review Manager dan model hierarchical summary receiver operating characteristic (HSROC) pada studi meta-analsiis. Kualitas studi dinilai dengan QUADAS-2.Hasil. Satu artikel telaah sistematis dan meta-analisis dan satu artikel studi longitudinal dilakukan telaah kritis. Kualitas kedua studi dinilai baik. Studi oleh Hartman dkk menunjukkan kriteria ACR-1997 lebih dianjurkan sebagai kriteria klasifikasi LES pada anak karena lebih spesifik (94,1% vs 82%) dan menghindari terjadinya positif palsu. Studi kedua oleh Lythgoe dkk menunjukkan SLICC-2012 lebih sensitif (92,9% vs 84,1%) dan secara lebih dini mengklasifikasi pasien anak dengan LES.Kesimpulan. Kriteria SLICC-2012 memiliki sensitivitas yang lebih tinggi dalam klasifikasi LES pada anak tetapi memiliki spesifisitas yang lebih rendah dibandingkan ACR-1997. Namun, SLICC-2012 dapat mengklasifikasi LES lebih dini secara signifikan dibandingkan ACR-1997.
