Outcome after cardiac arrest and cardiopulmonary resuscitation is dependent on critical interventions, particularly early defibrillation, effective chest compressions, advanced life support. Utstein-style definitions reporting templates have been used extensively in published studies of arrest, which has led to greater understanding the elements practice progress toward international consensus science guidelines. Despite development Utstein standardize research reports registries yet be...
Objective: To determine the effect of a medical emergency team (MET) on incidence unexpected cardiac arrest and death. Design: Comparison retrospective data (pre-MET) before introduction MET with prospective after system (post-MET). Setting: Tertiary care pediatric hospital. Patients: A total 104,780 admissions during 41-month period pre-MET; 138,424 48 months post-MET. Interventions: Introduction MET. Results: Total hospital deaths decreased from 4.38 to 2.87/1000 (risk ratio 0.65, 95%...

Objective To assess the frequency of complications endotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation. Design Prospective cohort study. Setting Pediatric tertiary multidisciplinary ICU. Patients Eight hundred sixty-nine serial patients, whom 500 were endotracheally intubated 431 mechanically ventilated. Interventions Daily clinical observation. Main Outcome Measures Age, diagnosis, tube size, type ventilator humidification, duration ventilation, ventilatory settings, (accidental extubation,...
<b>Aims:</b> To determine the impact of a paediatric medical emergency team (MET) on cardiac arrest, mortality, and unplanned admission to intensive care in tertiary hospital. <b>Methods:</b> Comparison retrospective incidence arrest death during 41 months before introduction MET service with prospective these events 12 after its introduction. transgression call criteria patients who arrested died MET. <b>Results:</b> Cardiac decreased from 20 among 104 780 admissions (0.19/1000) 4 35 892...
Objective To increase the frequency of handwashing by medical staff. Design A prospective study before and after patient contact. Setting paediatric intensive care unit in a tertiary hospital. Participants 61 staff visiting Interventions five-phase behaviour modification program: (i) unobtrusive observation for four weeks to obtain baseline rate; (ii) overt five (preceded written advice); (iii) continued with performance feedback; (iv) all feedback discontinued seven weeks; (v) residual...

][19][20] Measurements of abnormal physiology, including temperature, pulse rate, blood pressure, respiratory hemoglobin, oxygen saturation by oximetry, and deterioration mental status, are therefore important to any system designed for early detection physiological instability.At a minimum, these measurements must be obtained accurately recorded with appropriate frequency.A that both recognizes significantly values triggers an immediate treatment response is required.The American Heart...
The 2010 ILCOR Pediatric Task Force experts developed 55 questions related to pediatric resuscitation. Topics were selected based on the 2005 Consensus Science and Treatment Recommendations (CoSTR) document,1,2 emerging science, newly identified issues. Not every topic reviewed for International was in evidence evaluation process. In general, evidence-based worksheets assigned at least 2 authors each topic. literature search strategy first by a “worksheet expert” completeness. expert also...
