The aim of this study was to determine the optimal cut-off value for the Prothrombin Time ratio (PTr) and to show the diagnostic characteristics of the PTr to predict mortality. Methods We retrospectively included during 4 years all patients less than 16 years old referred to our trauma center for traumatic injury with ISS ≥9. Results A total of 272 children were included. Mean age was 9.4 ± 4.8 years and median ISS was 17 [interquartile range, 12 to 26]. Day 28 mortality was 6.7%. The optimal cut-off value in our population for predicting day 28 mortality was 1.24. Using this value, the sensitivity of PTr was 84%, specificity was 82%, positive likelihood ratio was 4.7, and negative likelihood ratio was 0.19. Early mortality (i.e., mortality at 24 h) was also well-predicted (1.0% versus 16.4%, p < .0001), as the need for massive transfuion. Similarly, patients with PTr ≥1.24 at admission presented with a higher rate of severe thoracic and abdominal trauma, higher ISS, higher likelihood of admission to an intensive care unit, longer hospitalization, and higher rate of significant procedure (e.g., surgery or embolization). Conclusions Trauma-induced coagulopathy defined only by a PTr ≥1.24 could be used as a severity predictive marker and as a sensitive, specific, quick, and easy to use tool for admission triage of pediatric patients.Lire moins >
