Abstract

The Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) screening tool captures some experiences of childhood adversity, ranging from abuse to parental separation. Research has shown a correlation between ACEs and both adult and childhood disease. This study evaluated the feasibility of conducting ACE screening in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) and investigated associations with markers for severity of illness and utilization of resources.
