Description
Saharsh Talwar and colleagues chart airway help for kids in hospital with angioedema, a fast swelling that can block breathing. They drew on a large national kids' hospital database, covering the years 2003 to 2019 and children aged 0 to 20 who were admitted with this swelling.
Of 4,238 such stays, 174 children, or 4.1 percent, had an airway procedure. Those kids stayed much longer in hospital, with a middle stay of six days versus two days for kids with no airway help. Bills also ran far higher, at 59,571 dollars versus 7,628 dollars. The team used models that weigh many factors at once to test what predicts a need for airway help. Emergency teams can use these clues to watch high-risk kids more closely from the start.
