The ICU-Resuscitation Project (ICU-RESUS)

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Cardiac Arrest

In brief

Pediatric cardiac arrest affects thousands of hospitalized children each year. High quality cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) saves lives, but is difficult to achieve. The objective of this study is to determine if a novel patient-centric resuscitation care improvement bundle consisting of bedside CPR training and multidisciplinary reviews of each cardiac arrest improves CPR quality and survival outcomes in a multi-center trial.
