PIC, a paediatric-specific intensive care database.

ABSTRACT: PIC (Paediatric Intensive Care) is a large paediatric-specific, single-centre, bilingual database comprising information relating to children admitted to critical care units at a large children's hospital in China. The database is deidentified and includes vital sign measurements, medications, laboratory measurements, fluid balance, diagnostic codes, length of hospital stays, survival data, and more. The data are publicly available after registration, which includes completion of a training course on research with human subjects and signing of a data use agreement mandating responsible handling of the data and adherence to the principle of collaborative research. Although the PIC can be considered an extension of the widely used MIMIC (Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care) database
