• Global epidemiology of pediatric severe sepsis: the sepsis prevalence, outcomes, and therapies study. (2015, methodology): “For severity of illness, the Pediatric Index of Mortality (PIM)-3 score (34) was calculated at PICU admission, and the Pediatric Logistic Organ Dysfunction score (35) was collected on the study day.”
• International pediatric sepsis consensus conference: Definitions for sepsis and organ dysfunction in pediatrics* (2005, background): “Only the Pediatric Logistic Organ Dysfunction score has been validated in a multiple-center study (17).”
