Comparison of 2005 and 2024 diagnostic criteria for early identification of pediatric sepsis and septic shock in PICU patients: a prospective cohort study
The 2024 sepsis criteria improve specificity but may overlook early septic shock. The 2024 septic shock criteria are stricter, potentially delaying diagnosis and treatment. Prospective studies and AI-supported early warning models are needed for better early identification and outcomes.
