Summary

In this study, investigators aimed to develop and validate a risk score to predict severe outcomes (e.g., mortality and ICU admission) in children who were admitted to the Children's Hospital of Fudan University between 2017 and 2022 due to community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). The objectives were as follows.

1. Develop a risk prediction model based on demographic, comorbidity, clinical characteristics, laboratory data, and chest radiographic reports to predict severe outcomes among children hospitalized with CAP;
2. Develop a risk scoring system and determine the cut-off point;
3. Externally validate the easy-to-use risk score.
