Evaluation of CDSS in Detection of SIRS and Sepsis in Pediatric Patients

This trial aims to evaluate the accuracy of a Clinical Decision-Support System to support early recognition of SIRS in paediatric intensive care patients. This assessment will be rated by the primary goals, the sensitivity and specificity of the system. Two experienced paediatric intensivists, who are blinded for the CDSS results, will analyse the electronic patient file (EPF) for SIRS criteria and thus establish our Goldstandard. All SIRS events recognized by the CDSS during the patient's stay are taken into account and will be compared with the established Goldstandard. The secondary goal of this trial is to evaluate the CDSS-results with the assessment of SIRS by paediatric doctors during their routine work on the PICU.
