• 1 other identifier: pediatric pneumonia
• Study Type: observational
• Target: 100
• Locations: 0 countries
• Sites: N/A

Brief Summary

Detection of the role of Complete Blood Count (CBC) parameters in early diagnosis of pediatric pneumonia

• Testing the ability of Complete Blood Count (CBC) parameters (N/L ratio, PLT /MPV ratio, MPV and other parameters) to differentiate between viral and bacterial pneumonia.

Conditions

Pediatric Infectious Disease

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• role of CBC parameters and ratios in early diagnosis of pediatric pneumonia - Detecting the role of Complete Blood Picture parameters and ratios in early diagnosis of pediatric pneumonia CBC Parameters in diagnosis pediatric pneumonia

  CBC parameters and ratios N/L Ratio PLT/MPV ratio ,MPV in differentiation between bacterial and viral pneumonia

  Baseline

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: 1 Year - 5 Years
• Sex: all
• Age Groups: Child (0-17)
• Sampling Method: Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

* Based on determining the main outcome variable, the estimated minimum required sample size is 80 suspected cases of pneumonia and 80 controls. * The sample size was calculated using Epi-info version 7 software, based on the following assumptions: Main outcome variable is the role of Complete Blood Count (CBC) parameters in early diagnosis of pediatric pneumonia. Based on previous studies (put reference) the percentage children of under 5 years who had pneumonia was 25.6% and based on the percentage confidence limits of 6% and a Confidence level =80%

You may qualify if:

• Newly suspected cases of pneumonia from age o 1 month to 5 years in 2 age groups

You may not qualify if:

• Age group \>5 years
• Already diagnosed patient who is under treatment
