Point-of-care C reactive protein to identify serious infection in acutely ill children presenting to hospital: prospective cohort study

Journal Contribution - Journal Article

Acute infection is the most common presentation of children to hospital. A minority of these infections are serious, but early recognition and adequate management are essential. We aimed to develop improved tools to assess children attending ambulatory hospital care, integrating clinical features with point-of-care C reactive protein (CRP).
