63 Increased Neonatal Mortality and Increasing Rate of Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis in Hospitalized Children: A Pediatric Health Information System Database Study
Introduction: Pediatric Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis (CVST) poses risks of neurological sequelae and mortality, necessitating timely diagnosis and appropriate antithrombotic therapy. Limited sample sizes in previous studies have led to inconsistent treatment recommendations. To better understand pediatric CVST, we used the Pediatric Health Information System (PHIS) database to compare clinical features, treatment practices, and outcomes in neonates versus older children, to analyze the influence of various parameters on healthcare outcomes.
