Use of Simulation to Optimize Outcomes in Critical Pediatric Transports

Background/Objectives: Neonatal & Pediatric Transport Team’s need to be able to critically think through challenging situations and make life saving decisions without hesitation. The purpose of this simulation was to review the management of a critical pediatric patient requiring expedited transport to fully understand events that occurred during a complex situation, assist in uncovering latent safety threats (LSTs), thereby improving patient outcomes. Methods/Design: The scenario was designed as a reenactment of an actual serious safety …
