NCT00631176

Brief Summary

This is a prospective interventional study to test the hypothesis that just-in-time training for pediatric airway management may improve patient safety and operational performance of orotracheal intubation and decreases intubation associated events in pediatric residents in the PICU. To test the hypothesis that high fidelity simulation may enhance the training efficacy and patient safety in simulation settings.

EXPERIMENTAL
Behavioral: Just-In-Time Training

Interventions

On-call pediatric residents from 7 south PICU (24 beds) will receive 20 minutes of just-in-time pediatric airway management training. This training will occur before their shift starts before the morning round. This training will cover direct laryngoscopy technique, orotracheal intubation technique, confirmation of the tube placement and recognition of associated events. This training will be done with or without high fidelity simulation function.
