• Compare individual performance during a
simulated pediatric cardiac arrest before,
after and delayed follow up after RCDP or
traditional simulation training.
• Perform this comparison at multiple centers

Timeline & Current progress

1. How to best measure individual performance
(knowledge, attitudes, behaviors- simulation
performance, written tests, surveys)
2. How many sites to start? Coordination of
data issues? Automatic collection of times?
3. Equipment/ personnel standardization
