• 1 other identifier: IRB00042123
• Study Type: observational
• Target: 83

Brief Summary

The objective of this study is to look at critical events in the pediatric operating room in a retrospective and now prospective fashion to determine if there are any trends such as age, presence of URI, type of surgery, type of airway, level of hands on provider, or other predictive markers associated these events so that we may gain some insight into perhaps reducing the incidence of these events or simply be more attune to the increased risks in certain situations.

Conditions

Anesthesia; Surgery; Critical Illness; Critical Incident

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• The incidence of "Anesthesia Stat" critical events

  The number of new cases of "Anesthesia Stat" critical events per population at risk in the study period

  7 years

Secondary Outcomes (1)

• Age of patients on which "Anesthesia Stat" has been called

  7 years

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: Up to 17 Years
• Sex: all
• Healthy Volunteers: No
• Age Groups: Child (0-17)
• Sampling Method: Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Subjects under the age of 18 are included in the study only after an "Anesthesia Stat," or overhead call for help has been initiated by the provider in the room or other nursing or operating room staff involved in that patient's care. Data will only be taken when a member of the study staff is present which is typically during the week, during the typical OR day, and not the weekends or late at night.

You may qualify if:

• Patients \<18 years of age
• Patients undergoing anesthesia and/or surgery or a diagnostic procedure in the operating room or other anesthetizing sites for which a stat page for help has been initiated.

You may not qualify if:

• Patients \>=18 years of age.
• Patients having a critical event not under anesthesia in other venues within Brenner's Children's hospital or within the pediatric intensive care unit.
