Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Incidence of sepsis during ICU stay will be recorded.

    Sepsis is defined by clinical criteria (temperature more than 38.9 °C, leukocytosis, thrombocytopenia, glucose intolerance, and/or new onset of ileus) and/or the presence of a positive blood culture in association with clinical signs of infection/sepsis. An increase in Procalcitonin level will be also used as an early laboratory marker for sepsis.

    Through out study completion, average 30 days.

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Incidence of septic shock

    Through out study completion, average 30 days.

  • Number of septic episodes

    Throughout the study completion average 30 days.

  • Length of stay

    Through out study completion, average 30 day.

  • PEdiatric Logistic Organ Dysfunction score 2 (PELOD-2)

    Through out study completion, average 30 days

  • Mortality rate

    30 days

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Other Outcomes (16)

  • serum Procalcitonin

    Day 1 ,Day3 ,and on each incidence of sepsis, and through out study completion, average 30 days .

  • serum IgG

    Day 1 and Day 7.

  • serum C-reactive protein

    Day 1 , and on each incidence of sepsis, assessed up to 30 days.

  • +13 more other outcomes

Study Arms (2)

No intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG)

NO INTERVENTION

The control group are burn patients with inclusion criteria that did not receive IVIG.

Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) group

EXPERIMENTAL

Pediatric burn patients between 1and 5 years with 10% or greater burn area of TBSA within 24 hours of onset of burn will receive intravenous immunoglobulin.

Drug: intravenous immunoglobulin

Interventions

All pediatric burn patients allocated in group intra venous immunoglobulin admitted will receive 200 mg/kg IVIG once after their initial resuscitation before 48 hours passes of burn incident.

Also known as: LIV GAMMA "S/D treated Human Immunoglobulin "2.5 grams/50 ml
Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) group
