Abstract: The Broselow tape, used in emergency situations, uses color-coded zones for estimation of weight, drug dosage, fluid and equipment. Its validity is not well-established in developing countries wherein malnutrition and infectious diseases are prevalent. This study determined the validity of sectional study was done at FEU-NRMF Medical Center on 1809 paediatric patients seen at the emergency and outpatient departments. Excluded were those with medical conditions that significantly alter their weight or height, children longer than the tape (>145 cm) and those with critical condition. Weight was recorded to the nearest 0.1 kg and length/height was recorded to the nearest 0.1cm. Broselow tape weight estimation was based on the patients' actual height or length was compared with the actualweight, as recorded in the chart. The estimation of weights was stratified according to age group. A subgroup of the study's population, such as those with dehydration and malnutrition were analyzed separately. Comparison between the Broselow tape estimate with the actual weight was done using mean difference. T-test was used to determine the mean difference between the actual weight and weight estimate according to broselow tape. 95% confidence interval (CI) (p<0.50 of the mean difference was calculated to look into the significance among the weight estimation by the Broselow tape against the actual weigth. Among patients with normal BMI and with dehydration, the tape estimates the weight within the acceptable range. Results vary for different age groups in stunted patients. Respectively, the tape underestimates and overestimates the stunted and overweight patients' true weight significantly. Overall, 97.5% of the estimations are within their accepted color-coded zone. Thus, Broselow tape can be generally used in emergency decision making process in our setting. |
