Pediatric Rapid Sepsis Trigger (PRST) tool
The digital platform consists of a mobile application integrating a pulse oximetry sensor attached to this device, with embedded smart algorithms that predict a critically ill state, or level of risk (below) in a child presenting at the hospital. The platform also includes an interactive dashboard located in strategic locations (e.g., laboratory, consultation rooms), which connects to the mobile application through a secure local network and displays the triage data to provide real-time monitoring for the physicians who manage the patients.
Emergency Triage and Treatment (ETAT) guidelines
These are the triage guidelines currently applied in the study hospital sites. This will be the comparator group.
