An Antiracism Approach to Conducting, Reporting, and Evaluating Pediatric Critical Care Research
Reporting race and ethnicity without consideration for the complexity of these variables is unfortunately common in research. This practice exacerbates the systemic racism present in healthcare and research, of which pediatric critical care is not immune. Scientifically, this approach lacks rigor, as people are grouped into socially derived categories that are often not scientifically justified, and the field is denied the opportunity to examine closely the true associations between race/ethnicity and clinical outcomes. In this Special Article for Pediatric Critical Care Medicine, we introduce an antiracism approach to con...

SCCM Pod-479: Is Tele-Critical Care Medicine the Future of Healthcare?
During the COVID-19 pandemic, hospitals implemented tele-critical care medicine to help patients while keeping staff safe from exposure. Now that patient care has gone back to normal, what is the role of tele-critical care medicine? Donald S. Prough, MD, FCCM, was joined by Krzysztof Laudanski, MD, PhD, FCCM, and Sonia S. Everhart, PharmD, BCPS, BCCCP, FCCM, during the 2023 Critical Care Congress to discuss how tele-critical care medicine was implemented during the COVID-19 pandemic and its continued benefits after the pandemic. Sonia S. Everhart, PharmD, BCPS, BCCCP, FCCM, is a clinical pharmacy specialist in critical car...

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...

Seizure Detection by Critical Care Providers Using Amplitude-Integrated Electroencephalography and Color Density Spectral Array in Pediatric Cardiac Arrest Patients
Conclusions: Amplitude-integrated electroencephalography and aEEG + CDSA offer reasonable sensitivity and negative predictive value for seizure detection by critical care medicine providers. aEEG + CDSA did not improve seizure detection over amplitude-integrated electroencephalography alone although critical care medicine providers felt more confident using both tools combined. Amplitude-integrated electroencephalography and color density spectral array require further evaluation as a tool for screening for seizures and should only be used in conjunction with professional continuous electroencephalography review.

The Pediatric Critical Care Trauma Scientist Development: Building a Community of Scientists for the Fields of Pediatric Critical Care and Trauma Surgery
Conclusions: The Pediatric Critical Care Trauma Scientist Development Program is reaching its programmatic goals of buildin g a community of scientists in pediatric critical care and trauma surgery as shown by the qualitative analysis. Key challenges include increasing the diversity of applicants, encouraging applicants who are not funded, increasing the rate of K- to R-conversion, and preserving National Institute of Child Health and Human Development Program priorities for national K12 programs and individual K-awards.

2022 Society of Critical Care Medicine Clinical Practice Guidelines on Prevention and Management of Pain, Agitation, Neuromuscular Blockade, and Delirium in Critically Ill Pediatric Patients With Consideration of the ICU Environment and Early Mobility
CONCLUSIONS: The current guidelines represent a comprehensive list of practical clinical recommendations for the assessment, prevention, and management of key aspects for the comprehensive critical care of infants and children. Main areas of focus included 1) need for the routine monitoring of pain, agitation, withdrawal, and delirium using validated tools, 2) enhanced use of protocolized sedation and analgesia, and 3) recognition of the importance of nonpharmacologic interventions for enhancing patient comfort and comprehensive care provision.

Pediatric Index of Cardiac Surgical Intensive Care Mortality Risk Score for Pediatric Cardiac Critical Care*
Conclusions: This newly developed mortality score, PICSIM, consisting of 13 risk variables encompassing physiology, cardiovascular condition, and time of admission to the ICU showed better discrimination than Pediatric Index of Mortality-2, Pediatric Risk of Mortality-3, and STAT score and category for mortality in a multisite cohort of pediatric cardiac surgical patients. The introduction of the variable “admission time with respect to cardiac surgery” allowed prediction of mortality when patients are admitted to the ICU either before or after the index surgical procedure.
