Independent validation of the ICU requirement score in a cohort of acutely poisoned adults

Abstract: Twenty-three out of 517 patients had a complicated clinical course as defined by meeting the endpoint definition. Twenty-one out of 23 complicated courses had a positive IRS (defined as greater or equal 6 points), as compared to 255/494 patients with an uncomplicated clinical course (p < .001, Fisher's exact test). One patient (with a positive IRS) died. The negative predictive value of the IRS was 0.99 (95% CI: 0.97-1), the sensitivity was 0.91 and the specificity 0.48. In conclusion, the IRS is significantly… Show more

“…yatırılarak takiplerinin yapıldığı bilinmektedir. 11,[18][19][20][21][22][23][24] Oysa tüm ÇYB yatışlarının %5'ini oluşturan zehirlenme olgularının büyük bir kısmında (%71), aslında yoğun bakım takip ve tedavilerine ihtiyaç duyulmadığı gösterilmiştir. 7,14 Veriler, hastaların büyük çoğunluğunun ÇYB ünitesi takibinden ziyade, ilgili pediatri servisinde güvenle monitorize edilerek izlenebileceğini; her hastanın yoğun bakım ileri uygulamalarına ihtiyaç duymayacağını göstermektedir.…”

“…10,12 Yaş, sistolik kan basıncı, GKS, toksin çeşidi, altta yatan hastalık varlığı gibi risk faktörlerinin belirlendiği yoğun bakım ihtiyaç skorlarında: (IRS) negatif IRS değerinin yoğun bakım ihtiyacını büyük ölçüde dışladığı kabul edilmiştir. 11 Bir başka çalışmada ise başvuru anındaki Glasgow Koma skorunun yoğun bakım ihtiyacını gösteren tek faktör olduğu gösterilmiştir. 30 Çocuklarda bu skorların uygulanabilirliği kısıtlıdır, zira çocukluk yaş grubu bebeklik döneminden itibaren ergen döneme kadar uzanan geniş bir yelpazeyi içerir.…”

“…More severe intoxications (both accidental or intentional) in adults are treated in the emergency department and many of those patients are admitted to the hospital (or even to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) [8, 9]. Many of the intoxicated ICU patients have a short length of stay on the ICU and the hospital and long-term mortality are relatively low [10]. This suggests that cost/effectiveness ratio, which is defined by the cost of treatment divided by the expected years alive, is supposedly very good for intoxicated patients.…”
