Core Tip	This is a single center retrospective study designed to determine whether or not the pediatric asthma severity score was associated with critical care interventions. It was found that patients with a higher (more severe) severity score were more likely to require continuous albuterol for longer (P = 0.001) and were more likely to have a longer length of pediatric intensive care unit stay compared to those with less severe scores (P = 0.001). It was also determined that patients with a higher severity score were more likely to require other critical care interventions, including noninvasive positive pressure ventilation and amiodarone. This may help safely distribute asthmatics to higher and lower levels of care in the future.
