Summary

This study aims to create a tool that can predict which children aged 5 to 16 with sepsis are at risk of dying or getting sick again after leaving the hospital in East Africa. Researchers will follow 4,000 children for six months after discharge to collect data and build these prediction algorithms. The goal is to help doctors identify high-risk children and provide extra support to prevent deaths after they go home.
