https://www.selleckchem.com/products/akti-1-2.html The Children's Intracranial Injury Decision Aid (CHIIDA) is a tool designed to stratify children with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). The aim of this study was to assess the utility and predictive value of CHIIDA in the assessment of the need for intensive care unit (ICU) admission in pediatric patients with mTBI. This prospective observational study included 425 children below 18 years of age admitted to the ICU of a tertiary care hospital with mTBI (Glasgow Coma Scale 13 to 15). The primary outcome was the composite of neurosurgical intervention, intubation for more than 24 hours for TBI, or death from TBI. Sensitivity, specificity, predictive values and likelihood ratios were calculated at CHIIDA scores 0 and 2. Among 425 children with mTBI, 210 (49%) had a CHIIDA score 0, 16 (4%) scored 2 points, and 199 (47%) scored more than 2 points. Thirty-six (8.47%) patients experienced the primary outcome, and there were 3 deaths. A cutoff CHIIDA >0 to admit to ICU had a sensitivity of 97.22% (95% confidence interval [CI], 97.05%-97.39%) and a negative predictive value of 99.54% (95% CI, 99.50%-99.56%). A cutoff of score >2 had a sensitivity of 97.22% (95% CI, 97.05%-97.39%), and negative predictive value of 99.56% (95% CI, 99.54%-99.59%). The post-test probability at cutoff score of 0 and 2 was 16.65% and 16.27%, respectively. CHIIDA score does not serve as reliable triage tool for identifying children with TBI who do not require ICU admission. CHIIDA score does not serve as reliable triage tool for identifying children with TBI who do not require ICU admission.Registered nurses play a critical role in delivering effective palliative and end-of-life patient care. Previous literature has cited that registered nurses report a lack of adequate palliative care training in academic and continuing education programs. Providing care to patients at the end of life requires knowledge in a variety of areas such as nonpharmacol
