Sponsor: Assiut University

Summary

The primary outcome in this Hospital-based study is to correlate the significance of hypoalbuminemia with different prognosis and outcome of different pediatric diseases. The secondary outcomes of this study are i) to investigate the frequency of occurrence of hypoalbuminemia ii) to evaluate whether hypoalbuminemia on admission is a marker of adverse outcome in this population iii) whether correction of albumin by Human Albumin infusion or FFP helps in decreasing the length of stay in pediatric care unit, morbidity (e.g., duration of ventilator use) or mortality of the sick child.
