Massive asia-wide study aims to save young lives in intensive care
NCT ID NCT06481644
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study will track 10,000 children admitted to pediatric intensive care units (ICUs) across Asia. The goal is to understand what factors lead to better or worse outcomes, and to develop AI tools that can predict how long a child might need ICU care or their risk of death. No new treatments are being tested; instead, researchers will collect data to help ICUs improve their care and performance.

Who is studied
Though the main methodology is recruitment of all pediatric ICU admissions, a pre-determined random sampling protocol is allowed for sites with limited in resources for recruitment and data collection. This protocol may involve recruitment of all admissions for 1year (52 weeks), all admissions for 1 month per quarter over 1 year (16 weeks), all admissions for 1 week per month over 1 year (12 weeks), all admissions for 2 weeks per quarter over 1 year (8 weeks) or all admissions for 1 week for quarter over 1 year (4 weeks) - this will be declared at the start of the study by each participating site before recruitment begins. This strategy will allow us to include sites with and without sufficient resources to be represented in this study.
