Outcome prediction in children with cancer and hematological diseases that are in the intensive care unit, based on laboratory indicators

Abstract

In order to predict the outcomes of care of children with cancer and hematological diseases in the intensive care unit (ICU) were studied in dynamics for 7 days before the end of stay in the ICU performance of laboratory tests in 45 children with poor and 38 children with a favorable outcome. Children with poor outcome revealed violations of the acid-base balance, haematological, hepatic and renal dysfunction. Identify a set of informative laboratory indices to predict the outcome in children with cancer and hematological diseases. The sensitivity of the combined laboratory parameters measured during the last 7 days of stay in the ICU, was 89% (81–94%), specificity of 97% (92–99%).
