-- The present retrospective descriptive study was performed with the aim to determine the morbimortality and describe the performance of the Paediatric Index of Mortality – PIM 2. The study was undertaken at the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit of the Hospital Nacional Daniel Alcides Carrión of Callao – Perú. During the period between January 1 to December 31 of 2003 with 171 children attended. Of this group, 33 children died and its mortality rate was 19.3%. The study group was conformed for 126 children and 19 of them died showing a mortality rate of 15.1% The hospital stay in the Unit was 5 + 5.4 days. With the predicted mortality calculed with the PIM 2, the study group was divided in the following groups: Very Low Risk, Low Risk, High and Very High Risk. The majority of the study group was assigned to the Low Risk group. The expected mortality rate in 2003 was 11.4% and the observed mortality rate was 15.1%. The most frequently pathologies were endocranean hypertension and pneumonia-SBO. The pathologies with the highest percentage of died children were septic shock and endocranean hypertension. The majority of patients admitted came from Emergency Pediatric. The most risk of mortality was obtained for the group of children who came from their home (14.7%) in comparison with the group that arrived from another hospital (8.11%). A significative association was found between malnutrition and mortality. Only 7% of eutrofic children died in comparison with the 20% of the malnourished children. In relation to PIM 2, the dead children group obtained the highest risk for die (28.8%) in comparison with the survivor children group (8.1%). The PIM 2 had a high specificity (95.6%) and the area under the ROC curve was 0.797.
