“…This finding is similar to the findings of Molina et al 8 and Oliveira et al, 15 who identified between 41.3% and 49.6% of hospitalisations for respiratory diseases. On the other hand, Costa et al 6 reported a involvement of the respiratory tract in 27.5% of the cases and in 15.9% there were surgical causes, in São Luis, Maranhão, Brazil.…”

“…This percentage is higher than those found by other authors [7][8][9][10][11][12][13] , who reported mortality rates ranging from 1.85% to 7.4% and with a greater prevalence among infants under 12 months. [7][8][9] In contrast, Freire et al 18 and Costa et al 6 reported mortality rates of 19.2% and 33.9%, respectively, in the cities of Natal, Rio Grande do Norte, and São Luiz, Maranhão, Brazil. The percentage of mortality differences may be related mainly to the indications of hospitalisation in the PICU; to the clinical conditions at admission and the high availability of beds and resources to hospitalise patients before clinical deterioration or increased tissue damage.…”

Introduction: Paediatric intensive care units have made important advances in technology and assistance since the 1980s, which have made more favourable the prognosis of critically ill children all over the world. Objective: Identify the epidemiological profile and clinical outcomes of hospitalised children and adolescents in the Paediatric Intensive Care Unit of Hospital Vitória, Espirito Santo, Brazil. Methods: A descriptive and retrospective study carried out in the Paediatric Intensive Care Unit of Hospital Infantil Nossa Senhora da Glória in the city of Vitória, Espirito Santo, Brazil. Age, sex, hospitalisation diagnosis, progression to discharge/death, and length of hospital admission were obtained from the Sector of Medical and Hospital Statistics Files between 2011 and 2012. For the descriptive analysis, categorical variables were expressed as absolute and percentage, and the continuous variables in average and standard deviation. For comparison, Pearson's chi-squared tests, Fisher's test, and Student's t test were used and p values <0.05 with confidence interval of 95% were considered statistically significant. Results: Of the 609 patients analysed, 342 (56.2%) were male (mean age: 72.7 ± 71.3 months). Respiratory disease, postoperative processes, and trauma were the main causes of hospitalisation. The average duration of hospitalization was 6.9 ± 5.5 days; 514 (84.4%) patients were discharged, 95 (15.6%) died, and of those, 53 (55.7%) died in less than 72 hours of hospitalisation. Conclusion: Most of the patients were less than 2 years of age. The leading causes of hospitalisation were respiratory disease (pneumonia, bronchiolitis, and asthma), sepsis, and head injury, which was the major cause of the trauma motivated by violence. The average hospital admission in the unit was one week and the mortality rate was 15.6%, with one third of the deaths recorded in the first 72 hours of hospitalisation.

“…The economic model influences the persistency of social inequalities and contributes to maintain the chain of events that culminates in child death due to evitable causes (23) . However, the prevention, diagnosis and early treatment of acute diseases, and the control and follow-up of chronic diseases, are able to reduce hospitalizations due to these conditions (15) .…”

This study characterizes the profile of hospital morbidity according to the main diagnosis upon admission, in individuals younger than five years old, residents of three cities 16.1% in hospital admissions of patients younger than five years old in relation to the total number of admissions in all age groups. As for the main diagnoses, there were diseases of the respiratory system (55.6%), infectious and parasitic diseases (14.8%) and diseases originating in the perinatal period (12.9%). Such conditions can be avoided by implementing primary health care measures, which shows the need to intensify the actions recommended by the programs directed to child health.
