In November 2022, the Centre for International Child Health (CICH) at BC Children's Hospital brought together leading young researchers at the 2022 American Society for T… to share their work developing leveraging frugal digital technology and data-driven vulnerability prediction to improve care across different points of a critically-ill child’s journey. Panelists described development and validation of risk prediction models, highlighting how such models can guide targeted, affordable interventions. Attendees had a chance to learn how practical and affordable digital technology equipped with clinical algorithms can support health workers with identifying, treating, and following-up high-risk children, improving outcomes within health facilities and at home, and the role of promising new host and pathogen biomarkers in enhancing the predictive capability of prognostic models.

Speakers:

Arjun Chandna: Risk stratification of pediatric febrile illness to inform effective community management and earlier referral to higher-level care.

Samuel Akech: Smart Triage, a prediction-based facility quality improvement program for critically ill children.

Teresa Kortz: Point-of-care biomarkers for mortality risk stratification in pediatric severe febrile illness; using next-generation sequencing for etiology of severe febrile illness

Matthew Wiens: Smart Discharges, post-discharge interventions based on the risk of post-discharge mortality.
