Overview

Retrospective analysis identifies factors like fever and hyponatremia in pediatric patients, suggesting better risk stratification for complicated appendicitis.

Key Points

  • Complicated appendicitis was identified in 28.3% of pediatric patients with acute appendicitis.
  • Key predictors include fever upon admission, band cell percentage, hyponatremia, and appendicolith presence.
  • The study used multivariate logistic regression to analyze clinical and laboratory data from 134 patients.
  • Identifying these factors improves patient management and can lead to more effective treatment strategies.
