Performance of a Predictive Model for Streptococcal Pharyngitis in Children

Abstract: A pediatric predictive model for GABHS pharyngitis performed better than physicians' subjective estimates for a positive throat culture and was comparable with a rapid antigen detection test. The model performed consistently well in different populations and across seasons. It can be useful if reliable microbiological testing and/or follow-up are not attainable.

“…We reviewed 30 full-text articles, of which 11 were included (Supplemental Fig 7). [46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55][56] Previous antimicrobial exposure was not mentioned in 4 studies but was assumed to be absent owing to the studies' prospective nature 51,53 and subjects' acute presentation. 55,56 Mean age was available in 6 (55%) studies and averaged 75.6 months (Supplemental Appendix 2).…”

“…Именно с целью оценки вероятности стрептококко-вого фарингита и тонзиллита были разработаны специ-альные клинические шкалы [13][14][15]. Данные клиниче-ские индексы позволяют идентифицировать пациентов с низким риском инфекции БГСА, которым не требуется проведения культурального исследования или экспресс-теста на БГСА.…”

“…Breese scale is based on nine epidemiologic, clinical and laboratory features, including the number of leukocytes in blood, which makes it less practical [31]. Four-point score developed by Attia et al takes into account tonsillar swelling, tenderness and enlargement of cervical lymph nodes, coryza, and scarlatiniform rash [32]. Welsh scale indicates high, moderate and low risk of streptococcal pharyngitis, considering recent exposure to streptococcal infection, pharyngeal exudate, enlarged or tender cervical lymph nodes, cough and fever greater than or equal to 38,3°C [33].…”
