Phoenix Criteria for Paediatric Sepsis and Septic Shock - What is New? Professor Mark Peters, UCL Great Ormond Street Institute for Child Health, provides an overview of the #Phoenix criteria for #paediatric #sepsis and #septicshock. The Phoenix sepsis criteria for sepsis and septic shock in children were derived and validated by the international #SCCM Paediatric Sepsis Definition Task Force using a large international database and survey, systematic review and meta-analysis, and modified #Delphi consensus approach. A #Phoenix Sepsis Score of at least 2 identified potentially life-threatening organ dysfunction in children younger than 18 years with infection, and its use has the potential to improve clinical care, epidemiological assessment, and research in paediatric sepsis and septic shock around the world. This interview took place at the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health (RCPCH) conference 2024 in Birmingham, UK.
