Although severe dengue occurs only in a small proportion of cases, delays in the recognition and management can result in significant morbidity and mortality. Risk stratification of children in the emergency care and identifying those at risk for worsening during hospital stay facilitates optimum utilization of health care resources. The objective of our study was to develop and validate a scoring model to predict the development of severe dengue in hospitalized children by identifying risk factors present in them at the time of admission to the emergency department.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>A retrospective study of consecutive children aged 1 month to 18 years admitted with serologically confirmed dengue from January 2019 through December 2021 was conducted. Analysis of clinical and laboratory parameters of children resulted in the development of a comprehensive predictive scoring model. This model was internally validated prospectively on 107 children presenting with nonsevere dengue to emergency care.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>A total of 743 children with confirmed dengue were studied out of which 216 (29.1%) had severe dengue.
