Evaluating the Ability of PRISM4 and PIM3 to Predict Mortality in Patients Admitted to Pediatric Intensive Care Unit; a Diagnostic Accuracy Study.

based on the results of the present study, the accuracy of PIM3 is significantly higher than PRISM4 in prediction of in-hospital mortality among patients admitted to the PICU. It seems that considering the 100% sensitivity of PIM3 in prediction of outcome, this model is a better tool for screening patients who are at risk for in-hospital mortality in order to pay more attention and allocate more resources to improve their outcome.
