Abstract: Yearly approximately 5000 children (0-18 years) are admitted to specialized pediatric\nintensive care units (PICU) in the Netherlands. Among these children, although\nrelatively low in number, patients with meningococcal sepsis or septic shock form a\nwell identified and special group with high mortality and morbidity.
