2. Background
• Pediatric resuscitations are high stakes low
frequency events
• Each resuscitation is a unique opportunity for
learning
• Need to gear educational interventions to clinically
relevant, engaging topics
International Network for Simulation-based Pediatric Innovation, Research and Education
3. Specific Aims
•
Pediatric emergency medicine practioners will
identify a variety of key points learned or reviewed
during resuscitations they have been involved in.
•
These key points identified during resuscitations will
be areas that the rest of the pediatric emergency
department staff would like more education on and
identify as low self-efficacy topics.

4. Approach / Design
Questionnaire
Developed
Resuscitation
Questionnaire
completed
Qualitative review of
data
Survey entire PED staff
Piloted and revised after mock codes
and resuscitations to elicit learning
Cardiac
points arrests, respiratory failures,
trauma, shock, or other resource
intensive resuscitation
RNs, attendings, and fellows
complete 1 form each
To extract 10 unique learning points
On these 10 learning points to see if
they are topics they have low comfort
levels with and want more education
on
