Caring for Children in Vital Distress

Errors during a stressful pediatric critical situation occur more frequently than thought. The main aim of the study is to quantify the number and the type of errors made by pediatric paramedical teams during the management of vital emergencies (medication dosage calculation, compliance with algorithms for management of cardiac arrest…). Then, simulations with and without the EasyPédia software will be compared during a high-fidelity simulation of a standardized pediatric cardiac arrest scenario in order to evaluate its impact on reducing errors during the management of a resuscitation. This study will be a single-center and observational trial in the pediatric intensive care unit of the Besançon University Hospital.
