The book Clinical Deterioration Scales for Pediatric Inpatients comprehensively analyzes the Pediatric Early Warning Systems (PEWS) and variations, aimed at the early detection of risk in hospitalized children. It presents the pathophysiological basis of pediatric deterioration, the main warning signs, risk factors and the so-called deterioration cascade. It describes pioneering scales such as the Brighton PEWS, CHEWS innovations, as well as adapted versions such as the Brazilian EPA. The content discusses national and international validations, clinical impact (reduction in mortality, unplanned ICU transfers and improvement in multiprofessional communication), barriers and facilitators to implementation, as well as technological perspectives with artificial intelligence, continuous monitoring and electronic integration. Aimed at healthcare professionals, managers and researchers, it offers practical recommendations and evidence to improve the safety and quality of pediatric care.
