Amaç: Çocuk yoğun bakım ünitelerinde mortaliteyi belirlemede birçok skorlama sistemi kullanılmakla birlikte protein enerji malnütrisyonu değerlendirme kriterleri içinde yer almamaktadır. Bu nedenle protein enerji malnütrisyonu çoğu zaman iyi değerlendirilememekte ve bu durum artmış mortalite ve morbiditeye neden olabilmektedir. Çalışmamızda çocuk yoğun bakıma ilk yatış sırasında protein enerji malnütrisyonu insidansı, mortalite ve morbidite üzerine olan etkisinin değerlendirilmesi amaçlandı.Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çocuk yoğun bakım ünitesine kabul edilen ve en az 24 saat süre ile yatan hastalar prospektif olarak incelendi. Demografik veriler, yaş, cinsiyet, mekanik ventilasyon uygulama oranı ve süresi, yoğun bakım ünitesine yatış nedeni ve süresi, PRISM III, PELOD skorları ve mortalite oranları değerlendirildi. Protein enerji malnütrisyonu için Ulusal Neyzi Standartları’na (2008) göre, yaşa-göre-ağırlık, boya-göre-ağırlık ve yaşa-göre-boy yüzdeleri ve z-skorları hesaplandı, <-2 SD olan değerler protein enerji malnütrisyonu olarak tanımlandı.Bulgular: Yüz yirmi altı hasta analiz edildi. Elli iki (%41.3) hastada protein enerji malnütrisyonu tespit edildi. Protein enerji malnütrisyonu tespit edilen hastalarda ortanca yaş 12 ay (7-30 ay) olup anlamlı düzeyde yüksekti (p=0.001). Bu grupta PRISM III skoru 17 (9-24) ve PELOD skoru ise 20 (11-22) olup istatistiksel olarak anlamlı düzeyde yüksekti (p=0.01, p<0.001). Protein enerji malnütrisyonu tespit edilen hastalar en sık solunum yetmezliği (%29) nedeni ile yatırılmıştı. Bununla birlikte mekanik ventilasyon ve yoğun bakımda kalış süresi de anlamlı olarak daha yüksek bulundu (p=0.005, p=0.002). Protein enerji malnütrisyonu tespit edilen hastalarda mortalite oranı % 30.8 olup anlamlı derecede yüksekti (p=0.01). Univarite analiz incelemesinde PRISM III skoru (p=0.049)ve protein enerji malnütrisyonu (p=0.027) mortaliteyi belirlemede anlamlı iken çoklu regresyon analizinde sadece protein enerji malnütrisyonunun mortaliteyi 6.13 kat (%95 CI 2.1-18.8) arttırdığı tespit edildi (p<0.032).Sonuç: Çocuk yoğun bakımda yatış anında protein enerji malnütrisyonu yoğun bakımda mortalite ve morbiditeyi artıran en önemli faktörlerden biridir. Bu nedenle yoğun bakım yatışına neden olan hastalığın yanısıra protein enerji malnütrisyonun da değerlendirilmesi esastır.
Objective: Many scoring systems are used in determining the mortality in child intensive care units and protein energy malnutrition is not included in the evaluation criteria. Because of this, protein energy malnutrition is often not well assessed and can lead to increased mortality and morbidity. In our study, we aimed to evaluate the incidence of protein energy malnutrition and its effect on mortality and morbidity during the first admission. Material and Methods: Patients admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit and hospitalized for at least 24 hours were examined prospectively. Demographic data, age, gender, the incidence and duration of mechanical ventilation, etiology and duration of admission to intensive care unit, PRISM III and PELOD scores, and mortality rates were evaluated. According to National Neyzi Standards (2008) for malnutrition, weight by age, weight by height and height by age percentages and z-scores were calculated, and values <-2 SD were defined as protein energy malnutrition.Results: One hundred twenty-six patients were analyzed. Fifty-two (41.3%) patients had malnutrition. Median age was 12 months (7-30 months) and was significantly higher in patients with protein energy malnutrition (p=0.001). PRISM score was 17 and PELOD score was 20 , which was statistically significant (p=0.01, p<0.001). Respiratory insufficiency (29%) was the most frequent cause of hospitalization in patients with protein energy malnutrition. The

The publication language of Turkish Journal of Pediatric Disease is English.
Manuscripts submitted to the Turkish Journal of Pediatric Disease will go through a double-blind peer-review process. Each submission will be reviewed by at least two external, independent peer reviewers who are experts in the field, in order to ensure an unbiased evaluation process. The editorial board will invite an external and independent editor to manage the evaluation processes of manuscripts submitted by editors or by the editorial board members of the journal. The Editor in Chief is the final authority in the decision-making process for all submissions. Articles accepted for publication in the Turkish Journal of Pediatrics are put in the order of publication, with at least 10 original articles in each issue, taking into account the acceptance dates. If the articles sent to the reviewers for evaluation are assessed as a senior for publication by the reviewers, the section editor and the editor considering all aspects (originality, high scientific quality and citation potential), it receives publication priority in addition to the articles assigned for the next issue.
The aim of the Turkish Journal of Pediatrics is to publish high-quality original research articles that will contribute to the international literature in the field of general pediatric health and diseases and its sub-branches. It also publishes editorial opinions, letters to the editor, reviews, case reports, book reviews, comments on previously published articles, meeting and conference proceedings, announcements, and biography. In addition to the field of child health and diseases, the journal also includes articles prepared in fields such as surgery, dentistry, public health, nutrition and dietetics, social services, human genetics, basic sciences, psychology, psychiatry, educational sciences, sociology and nursing, provided that they are related to this field. can be published.
