Assessing Competence in Central Venous Catheter Placement by Pediatric Critical Care Fellows: A National Survey Study*
Conclusions: Despite national mandates for skill competence by many accrediting bodies, no standardized system currently exists across programs for assessing central venous catheter placement. Most pediatric critical care medicine programs use a global assessment and decisions around the ability of a fellow to place a central venous catheter under indirect supervision are largely based upon subjective assessment of performance. Further investigation is needed to determine if this finding is consistent in other specialties/subspecialties, if utilization of standardized assessment methods can improve program directors’ a...

SCCM Pod-481: Everything You Need to Know About Critical Care Ultrasound
For more than 10 years, the Society of Critical Care Medicine has offered an in-person critical care ultrasound course that spanned two days, interspersing lectures with interactive training. This format has now been replaced by a hybrid format, allowing more countries to host the course, virtually or in person, to ensure that healthcare professionals continue to receive optimized ultrasound training and education. Diane C. McLaughlin, DNP, AGACNP-BC, CCRN, FCCM, was joined by Sarah E. Bain, MD, at the 2023 Critical Care Congress to discuss the critical care ultrasound course, how it has evolved, and how it is expanding ar...

American College of Critical Care Medicine Clinical Practice Parameters for Hemodynamic Support of Pediatric and Neonatal Septic Shock
Conclusions: The major new recommendation in the 2014 update is consideration of institution—specific use of 1) a “recognition bundle” containing a trigger tool for rapid identification of patients with septic shock, 2) a “resuscitation and stabilization bundle” to help adherence to best practice principles, and 3) a “performance bundle” to identify and overcome perceived barriers to the pursuit of best practice principles.

Criteria for Critical Care Infants and Children: PICU Admission, Discharge, and Triage Practice Statement and Levels of Care Guidance
Conclusions: This practice statement and level of care guidance manuscript addresses important specifications for each PICU level of care, including the team structure and resources, technology and equipment, education and training, quality metrics, admission and discharge criteria, and indications for transfer to a higher level of care. The sparse high-quality evidence led the panel to use a modified Delphi process to seek expert opinion to develop consensus-based recommendations where gaps in the evidence exist. Despite this limitation, the members of the Task Force believe that these recommendations will provide guida...

Development of Learning Objectives and a Validated Testing Tool for Management of Pediatric Mechanical Ventilation*
Conclusions: This is the first description of specific learning objectives for management of pediatric mechanical ventilation and the first validated and reliable testing tool for assessing knowledge. This tool could be used by fellowship programs to assess fellow competency and identify knowledge gaps in this area prior to completion of training. Further work must be done to determine the criteria for determination of competency.

The Impact of Critical Care Nursing Certification on Pediatric Patient Outcomes*
Conclusions: Bachelor of Science in Nursing education and Critical Care Registered Nurse certification significantly impact pediatric patient outcomes. Recognition of nursing and organizational characteristics that are associated with improved pediatric patient outcomes is important to patients, their families, and society. Clinical leaders must commit to facilitating pathways for hiring candidates with Bachelor of Science in Nursing as a minimum to practice in PICUs and supporting a culture of professional certification.

Simulation-Based Palliative Care Communication for Pediatric Critical Care Fellows.
We describe a simulation-based PPC communication series for PCCM fellows, including presimulation session, simulation session, debriefing, and evaluation methods. From 2011 to 2017, 28 PCCM fellows participated in a biannual half-day simulation session. Each session included 3 scenarios (allowing for participation in up to 18 scenarios over 3 years). Standardized patients portrayed the child's mother. PCCM and interprofessional PPC faculty cofacilitated, evaluated, and debriefed the fellows after each scenario. Fellows were evaluated in 4 communication categories (general skills, breaking bad news, goals of care, and resus...

Pediatric Neurocritical Care: A Neurology Consultation Model and Implication for Education and Training
We describe a model of service using a Neurology Consulting Team in the intensive care unit setting. Medical records were reviewed from a 32-month cohort of Neurology Consulting Team referrals. Six hundred eighty-nine (19%) of 3719 patients admitted to the intensive care unit were assessed by the team. The most common diagnostic categories were seizures, neurosurgical, cerebrovascular, or central nervous system infection. Fifty-seven percent (350 of 615 patients) required mechanical ventilation. Cohort mortality was 7% vs 2% for the general intensive care population (P
