Apendicitis versus dolor abdominal agudo inespecífico: evaluación del Pediatric Appendicitis Score

The Paediatric Appendicitis Score helps in differential diagnosis between appendicitis and non-specific acute abdominal pain. It would be advisable to replace the temperature in the Score, since it has no discrimination power between these groups. C-reactive protein at a cut-off value of 25.5 mg/L value could be used instead.
