High-stakes assessment of the non-technical skills of critical care trainees using simulation: feasibility, acceptability and reliability.
CONCLUSIONS: Summative high-stakes assessment using a single simulated scenario was feasible and acceptable to senior intensive care trainees. The low inter-rater reliability for the ANTS and Ottawa GRS rating scales and for pass or fail discrimination may limit its incorporation into an existing examination format.

Critical Care Medicine Practice: A Pilot Survey of US Anesthesia Critical Care Medicine-Trained Physicians.
CONCLUSIONS: This survey of CCM-trained anesthesiologists described a high rate of board certification, practice in academic settings, and participation in resident education. Areas of dissatisfaction with an anesthesia/critical care practice included burnout, work/life balance, and lack of respect. These results may increase recruitment of anesthesiologists into critical care and inform strategies to improve satisfaction with anesthesia critical care practice, fellowship training.

Board #205 - Program Innovation The Pediatric Critical Care Boot Camp: Evaluating a Curriculum (Submission #9113)
Conclusion: Implicit and explicit objectives were achieved as participants found the curriculum to be valuable, felt that it improved or will improve their clinical knowledge, skills and behaviors and reported an increased comfort level in the core skill topics. These findings were similar to a previously published report. 12 However, it is well known that there is a lack of correlation between learners' perception and actual skill acquisition so we aspired to go beyond perception. Additionally, one can question how much knowledge or skill learners can actually acquire with the bulk learning that occurs in boot camps. Part...

Pediatric transport medicine and the dawn of the pediatric anesthesiology and critical care medicine subspecialty: an interview with pioneer Dr. Alvin Hackel
Summary Dr. Alvin ‘Al’ Hackel (1932‐) Professor Emeritus of Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine, and Pediatrics at the Stanford University School of Medicine, has been an influential pioneer in shaping the scope and practice of pediatric anesthesia. His leadership helped to formally define the subspecialty of pediatric anesthesiology (‘who is a pediatric anesthesiologist?’) and the importance of specialization and regionalization of expertise in both patient transport and perioperative care. His enduring impact on pediatric anesthesia and critical care practice was recognized in 2006 by the American A...

The Child in Status Epilepticus Dilemma
The following case is based on a real-life situation, highlighting the difficulties in applying ethical decisions in the prehospital critical care setting. While the case is based from the United Kingdom, it ought to be applicable to similar EMS systems and settings. Kassirer et al. highlight that discussing real-world scenarios helps exemplify reasoning (both good and bad) that the reader ought to relate to within similar and future contexts.1 During the start of a night shift, an ambulance crew consisting of a paramedic and an assistant (EMT-B) are dispatched to a 10-year-old child in status epilepticus (SE). The pati...

Information flow during pediatric trauma care transitions: things falling through the cracks
In this study, we interviewed 18 clinicians about communication and coordination during pediatric trauma care transitions between the ED, OR and PICU. After the interview was completed, we surveyed them about patient safety during these transitions. Results of our study show that, despite the fact that the many services and units involved in pediatric trauma cooperate well together during trauma cases, important patient care information is often lost when transitioning patients between units. To safely manage the transition of this fragile and complex population, we need to find ways to better manage the information flow d...

The Current State of Combined Pediatric Anesthesiology-Critical Care Practice: A Survey of Dual-Trained Practitioners in the United States.
CONCLUSIONS: The current cohort of pediatric anesthesiologist-intensivists in the United States is a small but accomplished group of physicians. Efforts to train, recruit, and retain such providers must address systematic barriers to completion of the requisite training and continued practice.

Point-of-care ultrasound in pediatric anesthesiology and critical care medicine.
Abstract Ultrasound has increasingly become a clinical asset in the hands of the anesthesiologist and intensivist who cares for children. Though many applications for ultrasound parallel adult modalities, children as always are not simply small adults and benefit from the application of ultrasound to their management in various ways. Body composition and size are important factors that affect ultrasound performance in the child, as are the pathologies that may uniquely afflict children and aspects of procedures unique to this patient population. Ultrasound simplifies vascular access and other procedures by visuali...

Designing a national pediatric critical care database: a Delphi consensus study
CONCLUSION: We present the methodological framework used to select data elements by consensus for a national pediatric critical care database, with participation from a diverse stakeholder group of experts and caregivers from all PICUs in Canada. The selected core data elements will provide standardized and synthesized data for research, benchmarking, and quality improvement initiatives of critically ill children.PMID:37217736 | PMC:PMC10202532 | DOI:10.1007/s12630-023-02480-9

Intubation in Pediatric/Neonatal Critical Care Transport: National Performance.
CONCLUSION: This represents the first multi-center neo/ped intubation dataset in PNCCT. First attempt intubation success lags behind reported anesthesia intubation rates but parallels pediatric emergency department intubation success rates. Training and operational processes are variable in PNCCT, though top performing teams require live-patient intubation success to achieve initial intubation competency.

Frequency and Characterization of Tracheal Intubation Adverse Events in Pediatric Sepsis
Conclusions: The rates of tracheal intubation adverse events in this study are higher than in nonelective pediatric intubations in all conditions and highlight the high-risk nature of intubations in pediatric sepsis. Further research is needed to identify optimal practices for intubation in pediatric sepsis.
