Abstract The use of distance simulation has rapidly expanded in recent years with the physical requirements COVID-19 pandemic. With this development, there been a concurrent increase research activities and publications on simulation. authors conducted systematic review peer-reviewed health care literature. Data extraction risk-of-bias assessment were performed selected articles. Review databases gray literature reference lists identified 10,588 titles for review. Of those, 570 full-text...

Legionella-associated respiratory failure has a high mortality, despite modern ventilation modalities. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is used to achieve gas exchange independent of pulmonary function in patients with severe failure. This was retrospective review the management and outcome treated ECMO support large center over past 10 years. A confirmed managed at single center. Between 2000 2010, 19 caused by Legionella were after respond conventional intensive care management....

Pediatric shock, especially septic is a significant healthcare burden in low-income countries. Early recognition and management of shock children improves patient outcome. Simulation-based education (SBE) for prompt prepares interdisciplinary pediatric emergency teams crisis management. COVID-19 pandemic restrictions on in-person simulation led us to the development telesimulation shock. We hypothesized that training would improve recognition, process care, outcomes both simulated real...

IntroductionRoad Traffic Injuries (RTI) are one of the toughest public health challenges confronting India. An estimated 40% RTI deaths due to uncontrolled bleeding. Stopping bleeding in first few minutes is crucial for meaningful survival considering delays between and definitive trauma care. Our objective was develop implement a lay responder Active Bleeding Control (ABC) program help victims along two high risk corridors using simulation methodology.MethodsABC multi-partner collaboration...

Pediatric residents must be able to safely and successfully perform procedures used by pediatricians in general practice.1 Therefore, it is critical that pediatric develop demonstrate competency with specific "core" during training. Prior iterations of the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) Requirements Pediatrics delineated requirements procedural competence trainees meet. However, a recent set proposed changes these guidelines included near-complete removal...

Background: Life-threatening bleeding is a major cause of trauma-related deaths. Stop the Bleed—Active control (ABC) program in Hyderabad recently showed that lay first responders can be effectively trained. However, willingness high school students to train unknown. We report Bleed training needs assessment from schools India and estimate potential multiplier effect. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted 12 randomly selected Hyderabad. The study understand current knowledge,...

The disaster management cycle is an accepted model that encompasses preparation for and recovery from large-scale disasters. Over the past decade, India's Pediatric Simulation Training Research Society has developed a national-scale simulation delivery platform, termed Simulathon , with period prevalence methodology integrates core aspects of this model. As exemplar effectiveness approach, we describe development, implementation, outcomes 2020 Simulathon, conducted April 20 to May in...

<h3>Objectives</h3> Optimal strategies for reducing catheter-related blood stream infection (CR-BSI) differ adults and children, yet national guidelines do not make child-specific recommendations. We determined consistency between reported practice in Paediatric Intensive Care Units (PICUs). <h3>Methods</h3> compared PICUs seven interventions to reduce CR-BSI, ascertained by a survey of all 25 Britain 2009. For each intervention, we whether best available evidence explained inconsistencies...
