Overview

Retrospective study examines HALP and m-HALP scores predicting outcomes in acute bronchiolitis, suggesting clinical utility in prognosis.

Key Points

  • This research investigates the prognostic value of HALP and modified-HALP scores in children with acute bronchiolitis.
  • Retrospective cross-sectional study conducted in Balikesir Ataturk City Hospital, Turkey.
  • Included 344 pediatric patients diagnosed with acute bronchiolitis over 2 years of age.
  • HALP and m-HALP scores calculated from blood samples; outcomes include ICU admission and intubation needs.
  • 43.31% of patients required ICU admission, with significant differences in HALP and m-HALP scores between groups.
  • HALP had a sensitivity of 0.54 and specificity of 0.67 for predicting ICU admission.
  • m-HALP demonstrated a sensitivity of 0.57 and specificity of 0.69.
